    I've used the paper bag trick before and it worked like a charm. I believe I have a stubborn eater right now and if she doesn't take this upcoming week then I'm going to try that, the only thing with this is I feed f/t so I can't leave too long. If she doesn't do that then I'll have to switch to live to get her up in size then try f/t again.

    It might with bigger ball pythons I've never tried, but it's worth a shot. If not a bag just try a smaller enclosure that's basically just big enough for the snake and a hide. Put the dead meal item in once the snake is inside the hide and just put the whole container in a dark spot overnight. You can peak every now and then but try not to disturb the snake.

    Fill her tub up with crumpled newspaper, and leave it that way for a week, then try offering a small live prey (with paper in there) and check back in half an hour.

    If she takes it, slowly wean her off the paper, and a piece removed every few days.
