Hello, I finally forced it to eat a rat pinky. I used a towell around the neck of the snake and then I seized it. It sheded two days ago, and now it always stays in the branches. I hope it eats alone the next occasion, because I can not force it to eat all the time. I think that the forced-feeding causes stress and is a extreme option. Regards.
