    Could you give us the exact numbers on her temps and humidity? Cool end, hot end, and hot spot. What are you using to measure these, are they digital or analog? Are you sure they're accurate? If she isn't eating, she may either feel full, or her husbandry is off somewhere. The feeding pictures I saw, the meals were a lot larger than I normally feed my boas, and you're feeding weekly, so that's why I think she may be full. Not all boas will eat themselves into a heart attack. lol

    Edit to add: hot side and cool side should be measured with thermometers. Hot spot is the area directly above a UTH or directly below a CHE, RHP, or lamp, and can only be measured with a temp gun. You also want to be sure you're using thermostats on all of your heating elements, or they could cook your reptiles. For UTHs/heat tape, you want the thermostat probe outside the enclosure in between the pad/tape and the bottom of the enclosure, for ambient heaters you want them directly under the heater as close to the floor as you can get without the snakes being able to touch it.

    What I normally do to thaw my rodents out if I don't have a big bowl to use is to thaw them out in the sink. Then it's an easy matter to clean and sanitize.
    I'm so sorry! I left a couple hours ago and wont be hack home until 6:00. Ill get the temps and humidity when I get home. I use a temp gun, and cor humidity I use a zoo med hydrometer. BUT! Do you want some good news?








    ROE ATE!!! I'm so happy! Her mouse wasn't in her tank this morning
