    Dis girl don't wanna strike her prey

    So.. after explosive diaherra happened, she doesn't seem want to strike her prey.

    She does show interested , coil up and ready to strike but then suddenly turn away after minutes pass.
    I try to feed her couples time she does the same.

    should i leave her be for a week and try again?

    One thing i've been told on here is not to FORCE her to eat, she'll eat when she's ready.. i'm kind of in the same boat as you are with my female BP not eating.. Can only keep introducing the meal weekly like a normal feeding cycle calls for..

    Might also want to check the heat of the food item. I have a couple that won't eat if it's not just right.

    What is your set up? If her heats not right, she might not digest right.
