    Re: Needs some help asap

    i take my snake out of the enclosure and feed her in a heated tub lined with towels. i only do this cuz when she gets her aspen bedding all over the rat it takes her a long time to eat. when i feed her in the tub with no aspen her rat is gone in a couple minutes. try feeding her in a different enclosure without the bedding to interfere.

    Re: Needs some help asap

    I had Elizabeth like the second time I fed her take a FT mouse wrong...she was taking it from the back and the side. I freaked...it took her like 4 1/2 hrs to finish the thing. OYE. Actually it is how I found this site because I was freaking out. LIke they said....eventually ....if they cannot do it...they will spit it out.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Re: Needs some help asap

    Well everything went okay you guy were all right took it like a champ after a few blood spots here and there... But all else he/she finished it, i was just so mad that these people did this to this snake. It seemed like it had not shed in a year, i could literally see its vertebrae, its in some bad shape. Right now its in qt so if you guy were wondering it will soon attach to my rack upon making sure everything is okay with him/her... Well on to fatting him/her up very excited my first rescue

    THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HELP GUYS/GIRLS

    Next time perhaps leave it alone till it settles in. Couple of my snakes are shy feeders, don't like being watched while they eat.
