    Re: Young ball python will not eat anything I offer! Help!

    Take away the day light, your snake can go by the natural light in your room. The bright light can be irritating. Only use the night one on the cool side if your room temp is less than 75 and it should be on a dimmer. Your uth MUST BE REGULATED, this can be done with a thermostat, rheostat, dimmer. What exactly is the device you use to take temps? You need a ir temp gun or a thermometer with probe like an acurite 00891, you must stick the thermometer under the substrate right against the glass that uth is heating and if it's above 94 unplug it. You need the proper digital humidity gauge as well and the acurite I mentioned has thermometer and hygrometer. Before I covered then vent on my vision v211 I could mist it 20 times a day and within a half hour it would be back down to 30%. You need the right equipment and knowledge to care for any animal.

    Stop tube feeding as well, it's obviously doing more harm than help.

    My guess is you are not regulating your heat source and are not taking temperatures properly so UNPLUG YOUR UTH IMMEDIATELY, until you get something to regulate it and the proper thermometer/hygrometer.

    Read this care sheet and fix everything you need to so your snake can stop being stressed.
