Hello all! I am new to this forum but not new to Reptiles, in the past I have had ball pythons and a normal boa.I recently decided to get back into snakes and purchased a normal female ball, a 100% het xanthic male and just last week a female Dumerils. I have been wanting a Dumerils for sometime now and had the chance to trade for one at the Cleveland Reptile show. In my excitement over my new snake I forgot to ask the vendor when she last ate and shed, I don't even remember the guys name. LOL. Overall she looks healthy and is very tame. She is in 10 gallon tank w/screen top, aspen bedding and UTH. I currently don't have a temp or humidity gauge so I can't really say what the levels are. My question is should I be concerned with the fact that she twice would not eat a mice when offered. I think I may have tried to feed her too soon. I have only had her one week and a day today. I have read that Dumerils are voracious eaters, but I start to worry when boas don't feed. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. I'll post pics soon.
