Just a thought.

Last week I spoke to one of the Vet Techs. at the clinic. She may be a member here, I don’t know. She said she was having some success with tub feeding (some slightly pasty, protein mess) to a hatchling ball python that was refusing meals on his own. I don’t know how often, but she said he was growing and starting to take meals on his own.

Do you think that this guy would benefit from something like that?
Bill Haast of Miami serpentarium used a past to tube feed all the animals in his milking program for years with great success. with all the stress of being in a venom production line I think he had problems with animals going off feed allot and this is the solution he used. I wouldn't say it a good first choice but it defiantly has proved useful in some situations.
