If lead paint is so deadly why do they make it so delicious?

If you didn't offer them food, they would be eating.

Stop feeding them for a few weeks, keep the temperature up so they finish digesting then cool them down.

Also, you bairdi looks like he's having trouble shedding. You might want to up the humidity in its cage.

I live in central Illinios.Most of my snakes by now are normally passing on meals and staying hid.I cant drop the temps anymore or my family will revolt against me.My snakeroom/bedroom is the coolest room in our apt.
