Feeding

Snakewrangler Jun 11, 2005 08:37 AM

I purchased a wild caught ball back in feb. I am having problems feeding it. It hasnt eaten since i got her. Ive tried a few different things, for example a live mouse, a freshly killed one that was bleeding, and ive also tried a gerbil. If anyone has any suggestions that might work i would love to hear. this is my first problem feeding snake. Ive done research and nothing seems to work.

had a Fecal check or a Swab done for O & P (Ova and Parasites)
WC are notoriously picky eaters, and a animal with a parasite load also will not eat well

Good luck

Mine died after about a month
She had a HORRBILE foul smelling watery stool for 2 days before she died too
just went SO FAST

Be careful
