    It looks frustrating but at least she hasn't lost a ton of weight. 60 grams in 8 months is really not much. Once she goes back on she can make that up pretty quickly. Hope she starts back up for you soon. I like the record sheet you are using. Is there someplace I can get a copy?

    Does she eat live, p/k or f/t? Maybe try live. And maybe try a rat weanling. Once when one of my boys had been on strike for about a month, I had wound up with a couple extra weanlings so I thought what the heck. He gobbled them up like candy. Even though they were smaller than what he eats. Just be careful, for some reason IMO, the weanlings seem to be the bitey-est little things.

    It's my boyfriends first snake he's ever own. And she was a great eaters last year. Then she hit this brick :/. As for the record sheet I got the idea from another person on the this form. I like it and made my own on pages. If you like I can email it to you. Just pm me your email ;)

    We do feed her live. Before she started rejecting she ate Medium rats straight for the longest. Then this year she just doesn't eat anything. We went down to small rats thinking maybe because of size. Then we when back to jumbo mice. Maybe she just doesn't want any kind of food. I don't know she's a frustrating BP

    Congrats. I am very happy for you. Time for another purple check mark. It is such a great feeling and a relief when they finally eat again. ...and exhale.

    Haha yea I already added the check mark I was so excited I woke up my boyfriend at 1am saying that his snake took a jumbo mouse. Now let's see if she does it two weeks in a row. :)
