Question about a poor eater

[jtipton]

I don't think it would hurt. How is her build? I mean does she look like she needs a meal or two?

Could kick in her feeding response

Her build looks good for a snake her size. She doesn't look malnourished or anything. I mean she could definitely use some more weight but she looks healthy. I not afraid she is going die if she doesn't eat I would just like her to start eating more.

I'm not experienced on this,but it seems like your looking for a quick fix...once you take him out he may go right back off feed. So IMO,try and fix the issue the right way,as tough as it may be and try not to rig the situation..basically don't mask the issue..

I have tried everything I can think of with this girl to fix the problem. She is on a shelf with her heat tape away from the others because she won't eat if I put her in the racks. I have tried putting her in the racks on different levels, changing her heat settings, every type of prey item that I can get my hands on, live and F/T, etc. If it has ever been mentioned I have tried it, except for this which I have refused to try because of her size. She will only eat live rats and only in July and August. I have all of my snakes feeding records since I've owned them. I have 18 BP and all the others except for rare occasions eat just fine. I would love a permanent fix for this girl, but right now a quick one would do maybe it would snap her out of her routine. But I don't want to do if more experienced people think it could put her in danger.
