Adult BP hasn't eaten in over 8 months

African Soft Furred rats. They're good to jump start some picky eaters.

Gotcha. I'll look to see what I can find.

What's the going record for a BP fast? 18 months? Unless he's losing weight quickly (not holding relatively steady except for dips after pooping/shedding) then just wait him out. He's probably off feed for the breeding season it's totally normal.

I hope so. It has shed one time, and defecated only once since I've had the animal.

If you go to Walmart you can buy a digital kitchen scale that weighs grams kilos and pound/ounces upto 5000 grams (about 11lbs) by mainstay for $20 it is very accurate I've compared it's readings with our professional digital scale at work and use it for my snakes myself.

Good call. I'll pick one up.

what do you use to measure temps!?

is a thermostat in use!?

I use a digital infrared temp gun (checked twice/day), as well as the in tank thermometer. No thermostat on this one, just a rheostat.
