Hides

One rat that is as big around as the snake at its biggest section, thats the general rule I go by when feeding.

Well if I put 2 of these guys together that should be what he needs.

Thanks! I love em! Yea I hope to have my guy at around 100 grams in a month. Also for the feeding do I just give one after the other?

Since you don't have anything bigger I guess you will have to feed them one after another. Once I start having to feed more than one a feeding I usually go up a prey size. Your baby should be able to handle a adult mouse.

Well took him out today to give him a feeding. He's been in his cool hide all day he actually figured it out last night. w00t! But now he shows NO interest in food. Took him out and put him in a little container and thawed the fuzzy in to sent it. Finshed thawing and danlged it in front of him and pushed it up to his nose but nothing. No tonge flick or anything he just curled more tightly into a ball???!!!

FEED in the enclosure. Removing the snake just to feed is enough to stress the out to not eat.

Well I'm going to try again tom or should I just wait til next wed again to feed?

Must wait 5-7 days between refusals before you offer food again.
