still not eating

Hi all,

I posted on here a week and a half ago about my Baby bp not eating -

Well its now been 5 1/2 weeks.

the temps are fine, the humidity is fine, the bp seems to be looking round the enclosure a lot but just shows no interest - I have tried making sure the fuzzy is really warm, i havnt tried putting the bp in a brown paper bag yet?

I have tried everything any suggestions? should I try an assisted feed? will thus help get a routine started? how does one do this?

hope someone can help

You say baby. How old? And has he eaten for you before?

sorry my bad, i use the term baby loosly - the breeder said he was eating befor i got him, at the mo he i sprob around 18 inches, mayb tiny bit less. He has not shed in all this time either

Was he a feeder when you aquired him? Are you offering him what you know he has eaten before?

he was a feeder when i got him and I am offering him the same

What size enclosure are you keeping him in? How are you measuring temps (what are you using) and how much are you handling him?

the enclosure is the same ground space as a 20gal however t is only half the height - i have got 2 therms measuring the heat at either end. I have not been handling him the last 2 weeks, only going into the tank to change the water. And oviously to try and feed him

What type of thermometers? Digital or dial?

Here's a picture of how I have my babies set up, much smaller enclosure than what you are keeping yours in. And these "babies" are now over 250 grams and never missed a meal, and are still in this enclosure:

You still didn't specify what kind of thermometers you are using, and how are you measuring the humidity?

they are dial therms, looking at it, there is porb the same amount of groundspace as in yours, Nice BP I like the black running straight down its back
