I have had this baby Leucistic Texas Rat snake for a couple months now.

Hasn't eaten once!! Has no interest. I keep the cage around 80-85 during the day. And around 70 at night.

I have tried to feed him at night and during the day.

Live and Frozen pinkies. The other night I cut the live pinkie's skull open and squeezed out brain juice then left it in the cage with him. Nothing!



I am afraid of this snake dying soon from starvation.



Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!



P.S. I'm not sure how old he/she is....what would you say by looking at the picture...the age range of this snake?



Thanks!
