New BP not eating? Need ideas!

[Zincubus]

I just got my BP as well and at first he also wouldn't eat. I heated up a f/t mouse, then ran it under hot water and dangled it in front of my BPs nose. It took him nearly a week to finally come around. (Don't put the mouse too close to the snake, you may be scaring him/her). You can also put the snake into a dark bag with the prey, usually they will take it quickly. Good luck and don't worry too much, it will probably eat when it's hungry.

This method WORKS if done properly ...

A couple of mine will only strike feed from within their hides so I do as suggested in the above post and dangle the rodent in front of the hide's entrance - usually works but if it fails simply reheat the rodent with a hairdryer and immediately offer again whilst it's still warm , continue until it's grabbed ...
I always wait until evenings to feed as they're nocturnal of course .

Incidentally , if it shows no interest at all not even a tongue flicker maybe it's best to leave for a week .
