Hello everyone. we bought a baby ball python from a local pet store a couple of weeks ago, and it is refusing to eat. it is not even interested in any prey. we tried pinkies and fuzzies, to no avail. we force fed it about 1 week ago. our other 2 have no problems eating at all. any suggestions?

dont forcefeed it unless it was getting very thin. it onl stree=sses the snake out more and sould only be done as a last resort.

make sure she has the proper environment; 1 hide on the warm side and one on the left. the warm side should be 92-92 and the cool side should be 82-84. make sure the hides are nice and secure to where sthey're a nice snug fit. also, just let her be and dont try to handle her or anything.

Thank you, we will try that. In your experience, how long can a baby go without feeding?

All great options. Also check for any parisites like mites and if he has pooed it should looke kinda like cat poo. If its runny or something like that then he might have an internal bug.
