Re: Eat Damn you!
If I were to try the brown bag technique, should i used a live fuzzie for over night?

Re: Eat Damn you!
Did you make the suggested changes before attempting feeding again?
Smaller enclosure and stable constant temps without night drop?
If you deed you need to let your BP settle for at least a week from the day you made those changes, before offering food.

Re: Eat Damn you!
here's what got my ball eating
i kill the mouse at around 10:30, right after switching the cage from day to night lighting.
hold the mouse by the tail using tongs, and kind of bounce it around the cage so the snake can feel the vibrations, and hopefully get a wiff of the mouse.
drop mouse infront of hide, put towel over the face of the cage, and leave overnight.
hasn't missed a meal since.

So now you need to wait about a week so that he gets used to the changes you 've made so far.

Re: Eat Damn you!
Hi,
Judging by the picture you posted last week I would say she is nowhere near at the stage where assist or force feeding is necessary.
It might be worth summarising what you have tried/not tried to get her eating so far to avoid us repeating steps you have already tried. But your doing the right thing not handling her and letting her settle into the tank as much as possible. Can you contact the person you got her from to see if he can describe the routine he followed when she ate for him?
