Hello.
I am the person in the story that he is talking about. I have three baby balls that won't eat. The owner of the store tried live fuzzies (when I wasn't there), I have tried frozen (but warmed up) pinkies, live fuzzies (they had most their fur), and now live pinkies, and these guys don't even pay attention to the mice. I am more than willing to admit that I do not know much about snakes, but I am learning and will take any advice I can get. Someone told me today to force feed these little guys, but I don't think that is the best solution, expecially for me, someone who knows so little about snakes. I have put a 75W "Repti-Heat" bulb (by Exo-Terra) on the snakes and I am going to wait until Thursday night to feed them. I also tried giving them an appetite stimulator on Friday, but it doesn't seem to have worked. They are starting to molt, but half the people I talk to says that doesn't stop them from eating. I don't know what to do. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me!!!
