Latest update...

Came home from work... about midnight... which was about 8 hours after I put the pinky in the enclosure. So, pinky was still there, and the snake was just hanging out in the water bowl. So, I went ahead and removed it.

So... here's where I stand. Her first and last feeding was last Friday, the 14th. She is 16 grams (weighed yesterday). I will be out of the country from this Saturday to next Saturday... with no one to check on the snake that's local. I'll have a small cam on the enclosure, so I should be able to at least get a visual whenever I want.

This is what I'm going to do... please let me know if anyone thinks I should do otherwise.

I am going to wait till tonight, about 10pm give or take... and I will try giving her another pinky. Will use the method described above... let thaw in the room sitting above the enclosure at room temps, then use the hairdryer right before feeding... and re-heat if she doesn't take. If she ultimately doesn't take, remove pinky and wait till I get back, EIGHT days later.

Concerns:
1. letting thaw in room temp... room temps here is about 62 deg. (I like my house cold)... how long for the pinky to thaw at "this" room temp?
2. She's a young baby, 16 grams... is it fine if she doesn't eat till I get back (which from her first feeding till when I get back would be about 15 days.
3. Should I not even bother feeding and wait till I get back?
