Failure to thrive? Help please. :(

Slow growth is one thing, but even at fuzzy rats she should still be gaining. I have more recent acquisitions feeding on large fuzzies as well that are gaining. As they grow I increase prey size but I'm afraid to give her anything too large because she's so little.

I just ordered the NutriBAC.

Thank you all for your help and advice, it is greatly appreciated.

Should be on pups by now if she is 200g.
Up her feeder size

I'm actually feeding tonight so I will try something larger and see how she does. She's just not very thick around and I've been worried to try much larger. I guess I've never seen a BP with matabolism like this? All my babies have always grown very well. Thanks again.

I accidentally gave one of my hatchlings a rat pup - it was supposed to go into the tub just above it. The hatchling took it and while he looked like a little stuffed sausage, I crossed my fingers, kept him warm, and he digested it just fine.

I am going to echo you should be feeding rat pups. I have had ones smaller already taking rat pups easily. I think people are sometimes too afraid to up a meal size.

I do have a slow grower so I do have sympathy for ya.

Feeders can be be 20% of body weight safely. Weigh the feeders and weigh the snake. Do the math and feed accordingly. I would bet she had intestinal worms and now that she has been dewormed will gain weight if fed 20% feed.

Will do, thank you :).

For those of you who don't mind, would you say a little prayer for this girl that she gets back on her feet. Well, not feet but you know what I mean. All of my snakes are very important to me. Her name is Daisy.
