I realize snakes go through periods of not eating, but since Ransom is so small (hes only on single pinks) I figured I needed to start asking questions.
He has fed for me twice, so far. The first 2 Times I fed him by putting him in his little plastic container and leaving him in the dark for an hour, came back and the mouse was eaten. The third time I did this he refused to eat and after 2 hours in his cup I put him in his tank and left the mouse laying on the plastic container top in the tank, no luck. He didn't eat when I tried 3 days later, same routine, or 3 days after that, this last feeding I even tried putting a rag over the cup he feeds in to make him feel more secure. Brained the pink too, but no luck.
Any suggestions? Am I doings something wrong?
