Posted by: BigHairy8s at Sat Jun 13 19:19:41 2009 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by BigHairy8s ] Hey Burmtic. First of all,the guy shouldn't sell snakes that are not eating yet. This can be frustrating to a new snake keeper. Some of these little guys won't eat until they shed. Some will. Like HH said, do not be worried yet. I had a clutch hatched on May 6-10. Out of the clutch I had 5 problem eaters. Now it's two problem eaters. Like HH, I keep them in 6qt sterilites on 87-90 deg heat tape and each one has a little hide to feel secure. All the other burms took off with live hopper mice. The problem eaters finally ate with live pinkie rats. I first washed the rats off with mild soap and water to get rid of the "rodent" smell. Then I left them in with the burms for an hour or so before I checked them. Gone! Give it a shot as this worked for me. Wait at least a couple days between feeding attempts. I hope this helps. Good luck! Rich | ||
