I was just wondering if anyone had experience with redtail boas. I have two redtails that are about 3-4 months old. We bought them from an individual that was mistreating them so we have had them since they were 1 day old. One of our babies is eating on his own our other one will not eat, the only way she will take food is if I open its mouth and put in in their and then it swallows it down fine. We don;t want to have to force feed this snake forever. We have tried feeding it every ten days and when it wouldn't eat wait another 10 days and went two months without eating. If someone can give me some advice on how to get her to eat on her own.

thank you
croberts
