It's A Miracle!

Well everybody after almost 4 weeks my little 07' girl finally ate. After putting her in a new home (15qt tub) and leaving her alone for a week, she finally decided to demolish a mouse. Following Jo's steps to a T, I waited till tonight, turned the lights off, pre-scented the tub for an hour and then dropped the mouse in. Within 2 minutes she took the mouse. I'm soooo relieved!
Thanks everyone for your help.
Especially Jo, who was kind enough to instruct me through all the proper steps to get her eating again.

Thanks A Lot!

Congratulations!!! I know Jo will be thrilled to read this if you haven't already called her to tell her!

Woo! Congratz!

I just fed Salzedo in a feeding tub for the first time today, and was unsure how he'd take to the process of being handled and then fed in a new environment. I was ecstatic when he gobbled up the rat pup within a couple seconds of it entering the tub.

We both had good days!

Oh absolutely excellent Billy! I could not be more pleased for you and for your lovely little snake! It was great speaking to you the other day but even better reading this great news. Remember to do everything the same in 5 days, don't deviate from what worked and I'll bet you she'll go along just fine for you.

If you need anything, you have my number. After a few days it might be a good thing to get a quick weight on her but don't fuss with her or really handle her, just quickly get that weight (in about 3 more days when she's done digesting) so you know where she's at.

Congrats on the successful feeding!
