    Well, she refused to feed on her own today. Again. So, back to the syringe feeding. We pureed her prey with the special dog food and pedialyte and fed that to her. We tried force feeding, she wasn't having it. She's still VERY active and doesn't act upset when being handled but we will do this every 2 or 3 days then leave her alone for a week and see if she will feed on her own again.

    Just a quick suggestion - once your vet thinks that she has a good weight on her, I would treat her like a new snake - give her a full week with no handling to let her de-stress from the syringe feedings, make sure her hides are nice and snug, and THEN offer her a live hopper mouse.
