Not sure if it belongs here, but I need some help. My Ball Python won't eat.

Don't be sorry. You're concerned about your animal and in the right place to find info - that's awesome and puts you way ahead of a lot of others. You're making your animal's welfare your responsibility, and that's to be commended.

Just know that there's no need to panic right now. We've all been there. Trust me. She's fine. Just leave her alone for a bit, unplug that UTH (again - a table top lamp dimmer will run you about $10) and stop trying to feed her for now.

Bps are actually pretty easy to care for - they're certainly not high maintenance animals. They will also go on long hunger strikes - just had a large female end a 6 months fast.
