Hi all,


I picked up a BP rescue today, and he/she is blind. The store where I sometimes get rats took the snake in and was going to give it to a local reptile rescue. I had been in and seen it a couple of times, and I thought maybe we could give it a better chance. The rescue does great work, but I am not convinced they give the absolute best conditions for each species.

Anyway, the story was that the snake had a bad shed, and they tried removing the eyecaps. When I look at the snake it almost looks like they put something on the eye to help, and it wound up burning the eyes.


The store had been unable to get the snake to eat for a couple weeks, so does anyone have suggestions for caring for a blind BP? How should I approach trying to get it to eat? Also does anyone else on here have a blind BP?
