Agreed. No matter what the methodology, you need the let the snake settle into its new surroundings. Don't think that a snake is going to die because it hasn't eaten 3 days in, and don't be alarmed if it doesn't eat in another 3 days. And as a side note, I would get used to it...some hogs may go off feed for months(search the forum about hognose going off feed...you will get more posts than you could read in a day). Fortunately, they seem to hold weight fairly well and many can fast with little or no repurcussions. Andy
