LOL, yeah, I find myself thinking about it all the time and worrying, and I'm having trouble focusing on other things. The waiting is the hardest part, it makes me feel helpless, like I should be doing something, except that I know that doing anything will only make things worse and screw everything up. I need to breath and be patient! I'm sure once I get her to eat and see that everything turns out fine, I will be so much more relaxed with the next one. Kinda like having children. Congrats on getting Bubo to eat and switch him to f/t!Originally Posted by AlexisFitzy
Omg you sound just like me! We're total twinsies when it come to this lol. I was freaking out SOOO bad when I got Bubo and he wouldn't eat. It took him 5 weeks to finally get him eating for me and I worried night and day and lost sleep over the whole thing because I worried about him so much and I was scared he was going to starve himself or something. So I know how you feel 100%. But you can try feeding him when the breeder said just to try and see if it works, you never know. But when Bubo wasn't eating it discouraged me so much it made me reconsider breeding too but now that he's back on track so am Iand now I have experience getting a picky eater to eat and switching a snake from live to f/t. So just take this as a learning experience that will help you in the future

I put a rat in the room with her to thaw under the heat lamp and she's out of her hide now. Hopefully it's because she smells it and is hungry and not because she wants to try to escape LOL. If it doesn't work tonight, I'm waiting 4-5 days before attempting again.
