He still didn't eat! I let him get situated in his new setup for a couple days, then did as doug suggested...offerred a pinkie at night by putting its head right in the notch of his hide. he didnt respond, so i left it. after about a minute, he came out of the hide, went right past the pinkie, and for the next hour and a half proceeded to roam every square inch of the tank, being very active. he even climbed up to the top of the tank and fell back down a few times. after about a half hour of roaming the tank, he came back to the pinkie, and actually held it in its mouth horizontally, kind of like the way a dog does with a bone. he moved it with his mouth about an inch, then stuck his head up in the air and appeared to yawn. (not sure if snakes yawn, but it certainly looked like a yawn) well i woke up this morning and the pinkie was still there, and my snake was sitting in the back of the tank, outside of the hides.

i ordered a bottle of "lizard maker" lizard scent from overseas. ive heard this can help. do you guys have any experience with lizard scents? if not, what else should i do!? the 1 month mark for not eating is approaching. help!
