    Start out by letting us know what you have tried. Live? F/T? Mice? Rats? etc.

    Also, are you the one who posted about getting your pastel from MorphMakers? I'd call or email Steve & Cindy and ask them exactly what their feeding routine was with this snake, and try to replicate it as closely as possible.

    I think I saw a thread by you where you built a stack of enclosures that were 4x2. If she's still young and you have her in one of those, it could be the excessive amount of space thats stressing her out.

    Re: 3 weeks

    i would recommend a much, much smaller hide. get two of them, identical, one on the hot side one on the cool side.

    also, what is that substrate?
