Oh man my apologies I never responded to your questions Chris! She is young still, only about 14 inches long eating frozen thawed mouse pinkies and fuzzies (since she grew a bit). Well she was eating those. She is as of today still off feed. Her last meal was 01/18/10. Nothing in her life really changed after we had her eating normally for 5-6 months leading up to it her food strike. We had her in repti sand the whole time, but I switched her to aspen about 2 months ago. She is much more active now and has all kinda of tunnels she has made. I would say she has about 4 inches of substrate depth. Temps are probably 70-75ish cool side, and 85-90 warm side via UTH. She still has good weight on her, seems very alert and healthy too and comes out on top of her bedding to cruise around all the time. She just wont touch food anymore. We offer food to her once a week in a small dark box we put her in that she used to regularly feed from. I had to get a baby clean up snake (Black Milk) for my girlfriend so we dont waste so many fuzzies haha! But yeah this girl is stressing us out with this not eating dilemma! We tried cutting the feeder in half before too, but no dice.
