Hey guys,
If it isn't a little obvious, I know Zargoon in RL.
Here is the situation: I've been trying to help him get this lil guy to feed for the last two months. The original issue was that the BP was living with another BP for a while, however, he relocated him to an 8 qt tub. He has two hides that are a perfect fit, a water bowl, and the temps and humidity are spot on (88-90 on hot, 78-80 on cool, 55% + humidity). He also keeps the tub in a dark room, and covers it with a towel. The reason he was trying small food items was because the other food item he had available was a 25g rat pup and was worried it was too big because the snake seemed terrified of it (its a F/T no worries).
After he moved him into his new tub he waited a full week w/o handling then offered a fuzzy, then did the same the next week. He's been really great about not handling/touching/checking too frequently on his tub. Should he offer the rat pup? Or attempt to get a different food item?
And furthermore... if the snake doesn't take a food item still... is it time to assist feed?
Cheers,
Fatal
