A picture would help.
It sounds to me like you got swindled with a bad snake.
I wouldn't bother with assist feeding pinkies, I would be force feeding thawed, wet rat pups. They go down easy, yet they contain enough calories and nutrition to get the system running, metabolism engaged, and energy for recovery.
When we force feed baby balls, I use one rat pup every 3-4 days, for 5-6 feedings. After that cycle, I offer a live rat pup again.
You need to jump start the life systems here, and soon, a small pinkie is not likely to cut it.
Best of luck. ----- robyn@proexotics.com
