    So I guess it had to happen..

    Well so I got my albino home last week and waited to feed him till tonight. Well he didnt eat what a surprise lol. I don't think its used to his new home yet. He was also shedding all of last week so I figured too many things happening at once for him. I'm gonna give him till next thursday to try and feed again. Wish me luck.

    It's a boa, you shouldn't need luck. All of mine are great eaters.

    Im sure it'll eat sooner or later. Most of my pythons have always been good eaters so this is rare for me.

    He'll eat. Are you feeding f/t? If so, is that what he's used to? And if the answer is yes and yes, then leave it in there overnight. They know the smell. He'll eat when he feels it's safe. I fed my new baby boa the 2nd day we had her home. I left the f/t rat pup in her cage with her and 2 hours later it was gone and that was the first time she'd ever eaten f/t (she'd been raised on live). He'll eat.
