    Sweet Success!

    Well, I did as I was told.

    I set up the new bin. Tried ASFs. No go.
    I went to petco today and got him a small white mouse.

    I prescented and lightly tapped him awake (he was out of his cave).

    I left for about 10 minutes and got ancy.. so I slowly snuck in and sow him attempt to strike at it and miss. THATS when I knew it was all over.
    I peeked in his cage.
    *squeek*
    *crunch*
    I see a twirl and his lower belly flip up. He was constricting. This was less than 5 minutes ago. Now I'm just waiting for him to eat.

    ..
    ....
    .....
    I'm so happy! This is his first feeding response and I'm soo glad he constricted. I know he'll eat.

    Thank you everyone, starmom, satanicintention, everyone who posted on my thread! I couldn't thank anyone more.

    If it wasn't for you, he wouldn't have eaten. :]

    Haha, it's just the thought that counts anyway

    Very glad he ate! He sounds like he's settled in and ready to start that eating/growing/shedding/pooping thing they do

    Great job!

    Thank you again so much. It won't let me rep you.. it says I have to spread it around..

    He swallowed that thing down in minutes, man was he hungry. His last shed was beautiful (not full shed but his body was devoid of any leftover skin) even though it was in pieces.

    Thanks Becky, your the best.

    Becky is a wonderful resource and a wonderful person to spend so much of her time helping people out on this site.

    And you are a wonderful pet owner for seeking help and following the advice you were given to get your snake happy healthy and eating!
