Still not eating

[DJ_Bizarre]

Ok so you want me to get a rat pup like one of the pink ones correct? because like I said they are only about 60-65 grams each so I don't want to feed them anyhing too big, the other babies are easily taking down mice hoppers. they are in 12qt tubs

yeah, get a rat pup like 6g-7g and throw it in the tub and forget about it. youll come back after a few hours and it'll be gone. leave it on the opposite end of the tub though

I have had a few CH babies not want to eat at first. I have tried leaving prey in tub and still had no luck. A friend of mine told me to bag the snake. I looked at him like he was nuts...

Get a brown paper bag of adequate size for the snake.
Take a P/K food item drop it in the bag with the snake. Staple or tape shut so the snake cant get out.

Place half on the warm side and half on the cool side of the tub. In the morning the food should be gone. I find it adds more security to the little guys not being able to see anything frightening and just being enclosed with there food. You may have to do this a few times but they will get hte idea and start eating shortly after...Hope this helps...
