I have a year old red s.i. ground boa. I got her about 4 months ago, LTC, from a petstore, who told me she was eating f/t mice. Indeed, she ate a mouse within the first week I had her.
I had her wormed, and checked for external parasites, and she's clean. Her few feces have seemed normal.
However, she has not eaten since her initial meal. She seems healthy enough - fairly active, calm, alert. She's in a low traffic area.
Her tank is a 40 gallon, with a heatpad for belly heat and a heat lamp (outside the tank) for warm air. I spray her twice a day. She's on bed-a-beast, has several caves and lots of plastic plants.

She shows much interest when I offer her food (follows it with her nose), but then loses interest and will not eat.

Any ideas? I'm getting seriously concerned that she has not eaten yet.
