Doing the repel right now.....

[Carolinetrogers]

Okay.. found the repel, have it in on my housing with substrate still in. Have all three snakes soaking.

The RTB ate as always!!


One ball ate as always!!


One ball.... did not EAT as always!!



I just do not know what to do... In five weeks, he has eaten ONE time.... Still seems healthy..... seems okay.... but just won't eat.

I know.. I know... it's okay... they can survive for months.... but something just ain't right....... I hope that maybe the mites are bothering him.. and after all these measures he will eat next week.

Yes odds are the mites are stoping him from eating if they're on your bp... but can't say for sure.. it is a bp

Good luck on the mite issue! As for the BP, the mights might be stressing you snake, but give me some details on your feeding process. Do you feed in the enclosure or in a tote? Do you feed rats or mice? Frozen/thawed or fresh whacked? Do you dangle for a while then quit trying, or leave it with him over night?
