Hi all, I am new to this forum and I was hoping I could get some help with my burm. She is only about 8 weeks old, but the first time she ate was last thursday. The problem is I had to force feed her... I know this is a very last resort, but I talked to a old teacher of mine that has been a snake owner for many years, and he said that I should probably do that. So I force fed her and got a fuzzy down. Yesterday she had a little bit of poop (?) in her cage and she seems to have digested it okay. Before this I had tried everything to get her to eat and she wouldnt. Could there be a serious problem with her? Should I try to feed her again within the week?



Thanks so much

-Bill
