Hello everyone. My first snake Izaya who is around a year old has been having some feeding trouble lately.
Before I would feed him in his feeding tub and all would be well. He would rub his face on it, drink the water off it and eat. He's grown a lot since then (i got him this summer) and now he's more concerned with getting out of his feeding tub then eating.
I've tried zombie dancing, head squishing, leaving him in the tub for some time, and leaving him and the FT mouse in the cage for a whole day and sometimes it works but because of his pickiness lately he's been only eating one every week and a half. Now it's only been two weeks since I last got him to eat but when should I start to worry?
also could it be the size? I recently move him up to adult mice. he's eaten them successfully once or twice before but I've thrown away more then he has eaten.
Heres a picture of him next to the size i'm feeding him. Is it ok?
