Hello, got a baby corn!

Assist fed two pinkie legs, one with a good little chunk of chest meat, and I am sure it's cause either I am getting more used to the assisting but he seamed like he took it way easier, after I got the leg to his throat it was all him, hopefully next feeding he'll do it on his on! Either way I'll keep updating!

Sounds promising. :crosses fingers: :)

Still not freaking eating! The guy is driving me CRAZY!!!

Sometimes it's takes a few assist feeds. I have one baby corn (of eight) that has refused all his meals. I'm about to have to assist feed him and I am TERRIBLY nervous since I've never had to assist feed anything. Time to start doing my research...

I feel awful for you! I'm sure you feel like giving up, but you won't! I wonder how many people saw that corn and didn't take him home. You did! What a story you'll have to tell when he's 20 years old and pounding mice!

This!

I'm so glad that he went home with you, and not someone who would have given up on him. I'm sorry that it's been so frustrating :sigh2:

Just keep at it and don't lose hope. Last one I had to assist didn't eat for over the first four months. Every week, he was given a chance and every other week, he was assist/ tube fed. It was about the time I was ready to throw my hands in the air and give up that he surprised me by eating his first pinkie. Once that happened, he never looked back. I'm pretty sure they just like giving their owners grey hair. ;)

the best corn snake i have seen ^_^ cute baby snake ..........:taz:

Thank you all for the support!! You all know I will keep at it! NO MATTER HOW LONG IT TAKES! Thank you all again so much!
