Ok, my "new" snake (who I adopted at 16 years old) still won't eat (it's been about 4 months since I got her). I've offered various sized f/t rats (once a week) with no luck. Tried tongs, tried dragging, tried dangling, tried dropping them in.

I contacted the previous owner, he won't return my emails, I don't think he cares much about the snake's welfare . My other ball python eats great, but Kona just won't eat.

She was very thick-bodied when I got her, and is still looking ok, but I'm getting worried.

I will try anything! I need help from all of you snake owners

Oh, and she always "looks" hungry---wiggling around the cage, sniffing at the top, etc---but she'll sniff at the rat for a minute or two and then slither away . . .
