i've only had my snake for a week, but he was supposedly the best feeder out of all the babies the breeder had. they said they fed him every thursday morning so i tried yesterday and he was completely uninterested. nobody in town has live pinkies because they all say it's 'unethical' or 'inhumane' but the breeder said he only feeds live... would this have a huge impact? it was like the snake didn't even see it there (or smell it).

my main question is, how long should i wait to try again? also, i tried to feed it in a cloth bag, should i try something else? i have a spare 10 gal aquarium, should i try that? any other tips? out of the 5 or so sources i've read, i'm getting conflicting advice.

thanks, i love this forum!

btw, this is a spotted, not a ball.
