Can't seem to figure out this girl. My 267g Pastel Yellow Belly has been pissy since I brought her home. She's eaten once, but refused the last two weeks. Her temps are right. Her humidity is right. She hides most of the day, cruises at night. All normal stuff there. But she strikes at everything. I can handle her for a moment if I pick her up from the back to do maintenance but that's about it, and she's ready to have a go at me the whole time. Yeah, I know some snakes are just like that and maybe she's having a hard time settling in. It did take her a full 17 days to go into her hides. I'm going to try her on a fuzzy rat tonight. She refused the 29g one today (yeah I weigh my food) so maybe a step down will get her going again. Nora does not seem to mind though. She takes the leftovers happily and has put on 500g in two weeks. Makes me wonder what her previous keeper was doing.
Not really looking for advice, but I'll take it. I'm just venting...
