Baby dums are not easy to start.
Boy you're not kidding. I had a Heck of a time starting mine. I ended up scenting pinkies with geckos. They will only eat at night. The room had to be completely dark too. They still won't eat during the day, but they eat like champs now.

Lordy she's a pretty girl April! Something about her pattern just makes me think of old handmade antique lace tatting that you hardly see anyone do anymore these days.

Yeah, Jo. They have such a lovely cryptic pattern.
Re: Freshly shed dumerils pic
Not sure how I missed this one, but she looks great! Do you have a male picked out for this girl?
Unfortunately I won't be breeding my Dums this year. Baby Dumerils are the chunkiest/cutest baby boas you'll ever find. I've got one baby boy left from two Dumeril litters we had last year. He's been on hold for a few weeks and I hope the buyer takes his time. :D

I've rarely had any trouble getting my baby Dumerils started. Just use a substrate the can burrow under, keep the temps proper and it's best/easier to offer live mice/rats for starters and just be patient. They'll come around, might take a few days or a few weeks, but they'll come around. Once they are established you won't have any feeding issues with Dums.
Dumerils are great overall Boas and I hope you get to breed that girl soon!
