    getting a bit worried - Am I Missing something?

    Had my Lady BP for three weeks now and she is still not eating. Posted on here and used the tricks. She is just getting skinny and I'm a bit worried and not sure if i'm missing anything. I have a corn and she is very healthy. I have included a pic of her viv set up. temps are 33 degrees Celsius in the hot side and 25 in the cold side, humidity fluxes between 50-65 she has one large water bowl, two hides and one climbing log. She handles well and I handle her 5-10 mins every other day. She was born July this year. What can I do? I have a very healthy corn, but I guess they are a lot hardier snakes. Just worried about the weight loss...Can you advise me?

    Keep offering each week, and lay off handling her till she eats at least twice. She looks small, how old is she?

    The cup is useful because of it's emptiness
