The Snake a disfigured left eye. Its there but its very tiny. The right eye is fine. I got him about 2 weeks ago. I tried to feed the snake when i first got him, i tried to feed him a thawed to room temp. Pinky but he did not take it. So then i waited 3 days and tried to feed him a live pinky left it in the cage for 3 days but he did not take it. Then i awaited a week bought another pinky left it in the cage for 1 1/2 and found the pinky in the water bowl. But the water bowl was impossible for the pinky to get into. Could someone please help
 
well, most wont eat a room temp pinky, they need to be quite abit warmer than that.. about 100 degrees? :shrugs:

when you bought him... where from?? was it eating before you got it?? What are the temps you are keeping him at?? What do you feed it in??
 
He might just be stressed from being moved...from how it sounds. Some corns don't eat for two...three...I've had a few go a month after shipping or moving them even from the pet store to their new home, where they just will not eat, no matter what you try. :shrugs:
