Still can't get BP Babies to eat!

gwright86 May 25, 2003 12:07 PM

I bought them May 10th and have tried both live hoppers and fuzzies and they still show no interest. Does anyone have any advice? BTW, they're imports, but everyone syas that Ghana babies should eat within a week or two. Thanks.

...make sure they have a hide box and try feeding in subdued light (ie at night). Live large fuzzy mice or small fuzzy rat. Also best to have 1 snake/cage so they don't disturb each other and you can monitor stools, etc. SJM

I could not get mine to eat fuzzy rats.
But they readily took fuzzy mice.

Yours could be the same or reversed.
