What type of snake was this last one? No its not because its a baby nor your "better" setup thats causing this snake to not eat.
Re: How to assist feed properly?
A ball, and about 8 inches longer
Re: How to assist feed properly?
chalk it up to you got lucky and had a great feeder. you really are resistant to change, and you keep blaming everything else but yourself. you need to step back and think about what you might be doing wrong, and what you can do better, then you're snake will be fine.(unless there's something actually wrong with it that is)

Re: How to assist feed properly?
My dad no longer wanted to get mice for it, and I was only 13 then.

I thought you were a younger KID but lets be for real here.Sorry those 11 pages you say you were yelled at here must have been a waste of time and web site space.I say this because YOU MUST NOT HAVE UNDERSTOOD A SINGLE WORD that was typed in that thread.YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING POINT BLANK!! If you did your snake would be eating and you would not be ready to kill it by stuffing something down its throat.Where did you get the money to buy this poor snake? Go mow someones grass or something to get some cash if you really care about your snake.Its YOUR snake not your MOTHERS!
Could you please respond to this posting of mine?

first you said you found urine and urates in your cage again...then you say it could have been 9 weeks with no food.
uhmmm....if he is uratating and urinating then he has obviously consumed something!
and when you said again that means you have seen it before???

When he said -

He was saying that he doesn't know how long the snake was at the pet store before he got it - he has had it for 3 weeks, and who knows if its been at the pet store for 1 week or 6 weeks, with no food.
Whtyeboi - if you sincerly have gotten the proper setup described to you by the members of this forum, and have honestly and truely been leaving the snake alone for 7 days at a clip and trying to feed, then :sweeet: I applaude you.
Assuming that the above is true, I would wait another week ... and during this week call vets and save up some money to take this thing to one. Coming from god-knows where, it's quite possible that your snake has some sort of parasite or some other ailement keeping it from eating. Getting a professional opinion at this point would be the best thing for you and your snake. ;) If you are unwilling to do this, then find someone extremely experienced around you to take it for you so it doesn't die - Please - because it quite possibly will.
