The only thing I would suggest is trying to feed Eggroll first and if she refuses you can feed that prey to your other snakes so they’re not wasted, even though I’m sure the wildlife outdoors appreciate those meals too. Make sure you let us know when she takes her next meal so I can add it to my study . Best wishes.
    From all the reading on here I figured until I hit the 6 month mark or so it not a problem No Worries, Just the first year she has gone on strike

    Otherwise she acts normal, so I figured it's just her being a BP

    I have been trying to feed Eggroll Last just so I can leave the snake room
    and leave the rat in her enclosure if she won't take it from the tongs.

    Cheyenne (Boa) gets fed first, Once she smells Rat she'll strike glass at every movement, I could cover her enclosure, But the longer she waits the more she's fired up, And she's Quick.

    I'll update this thread on a monthly basis or when she eats, so you can update you study.
