Incidentally try the hairdryer method when she’s had another couple meals ..Originally Posted by MichPlat
The method makes feeding night a pleasure rather than a worrying chore
::::
My method is to thaw the mouse near the snake viv during the day , then in the evening- wait until it’s dark / dim light ...
Then wait until the snake is well settled under a hide , then open the glass door , using tongs give the mouse a good blast with a hairdryer ( plugged in near the viv ) then immediately dangle the mouse in front of the hide entrance .
If there’s no strike simply reheat with the hairdryer and again dangle it instantly whilst it’s still warm ... in the odd case you may have to repeat the process 5 or 6 times but in my experience it rarely fails .. . Follow the method closely and it works 90%+ of the time I’d say - the other 10% of the time I’d put down to the snakes being in shed mode and simply not interested in food
