I'm really having no luck with this one. She won't eat for me. It's been 4 months since I got her (supposedly a hatchling at the time). A friend of mine talked to one of his herper friends who breeds these kids. I got a stern yellin' at for not keeping her housed properly. So they made the adjustments. (Darker/warmer) and we wait... and wait... and still she wont eat. Even they kept her for a while to no avail. Everynight though she comes out... wanders around... If we happen to watch her? She strikes at us. (Really sweet heart I tell you...) I'm sort of at my wits end. The breeder aquaintence said despite how traumatic it is, he'd used a pinky pump to give her something at least. So technically she ate -once- in 4 months. But really... I have no clue at this point.

If you think you can help me out please do... I really don't want to give up on her but I just might. See if someone else has any luck with her. I feel so lost. I've kept redtails before without a problem -at all-. I did my reading, researching felt I Was ready for her... now i'm not so sure.
