Re: Getting a BP to eat...
Some will eat in shed, and some won't - you can try to offer her food, and if she doesn't take in 1/2 an hour, just remove it and wait a week to offer her food again.
Re: Getting a BP to eat...
I would avoid the pillow case, feeding can be such a routine thing and then poof they wont eat. I wont get into all the natural change in season, temp etc etc that can natural make a bp go off feed.
But i will go with something simple. My best feeder of all went off feed 2 months, ironically it happend right after a feeding incident where he was coming to get the prey and the tail slipped out of the tonges and landed on his head. Now after the fact it is kind of funny but as you guess it. Scared him to death and took two months to get back.
IMO feeding is a passive event for the owner. Go thru all the tips but when the cage opens the item needs to presented from a distances, be appropriate temperature etc. Too many re attempt feeding day after day, that is no good. Too many dont watch the animal to give it a chance to pick up scent /stalk, find etc the item and they just open and dangle it two inches from face. If you dont give the bp a chance to progress to feeding response and get to aggressive with presentation, not good. In short i would not force proximity to prey at any time. They need to close the distance and show interest first.
Just my two cents:)
