Re: To force feed or not...
Please list all the methods you have tried in a 13 day timeframe.
This animal is probably stressed for one. and should only be offered food once every week. Not several times a week.
Have you tried, FT, PK, Small Live, Brained PK, Brained FT, Different colored prey items? Different TYPES of prey? Gerbils, Hamsters and the like.
Have you tried scenting?
Re: To force feed or not...
on the note with the watery poo..
Have you gotten a fecal float done?
That could hold the answer to all your problems as she may have a parasite. Watery poops are not the kind of bowel movements a healthy ball python produces.
Re: To force feed or not...
JUST LEAVE THE GIRL ALONE.
Thats it.
Do not change ANYTHING once she has a secure environment.
Offer food ONCE a week, and check the cleanliness of her tank, ONCE a day.
Cover her enclosure COMPLETELY, and DONT even look at her.
Then wait.
If she hasn't eaten in another 2 weeks, come back.
