I read an article that low dosing with Metronidazole (a.k.a Flagyl)induces a feeding response in snakes that will not eat. A few months ago I had two picky eaters that were down to below 50grams that I dosed at 1/2 the normal dose, I think I used 20mg/kg (it was tricky) but it worked; three days later they both ate. No kidding.

Regards,
Alan
