    Well a week has come and gone, and I tried to feed the snake today. It didn't show any interest in the food, which has me quite worried now.

    The snake seems strong, and is able to move the water bowl that is quite a bit larger/heavier than itself. Also it is drinking by itself. However, the food (live mouse fuzzy? hopper? I don't know what you call these, before they open their eyes but with fur) was totally ignored even left in there for a while.

    I chose the mouse because it is a lot smaller than the usual rat fuzzy. They had no rat pups for sale today. I am only hoping that the reason is because it wanted rat only not mouse...

    It's possible that it only likes rats. That's ultimately a good thing. The mice people use to stimulate feeding are hoppers, which have their eyes open and are very fast and fidgety and like to hop around.

    That said, there definitely could be something else going on... GL

    Re: Baby regurgitation, don't know what went wrong
    Yes I got the mouse (smaller than hopper then according to your description because eyes are not opened) because I was supposed to feed a smaller meal first and this was all they had.

    So what from here? I wait another week and offer a rat pink? It was a voracious feeder before the regurge.
