    Re: Advice On First Feed?

    Look first off

    Make sure your temps and humidity are CORRECT

    Leave him alone for a week.

    Get him eating on live for a few times for ya

    Then you can try the switch to f/t

    But keep in mind the first and second thing i said. These lead to stress. And stress leads to not eating

    Edit: And as far as holding. IMO i think it's just stupid to hold a new snake who you haven't gotten to eat. Snakes don't like to be held they tolerate it. And if he is stressed out and not eating for you lets not add more to it

    Edit x2:Also if u got a digital scale u could see how many grams he is and feed him 10-15% if his body weight if hes under like 1000g's i think.
