Alright awesome... I'm still going to try a feed in a day or so then weekly from there. Thanks for the help and I'll continue updating how he's doing... So far he's very friendly and social... The shed was quick and painless also... So all in all I'm very happy with my new buddy...

Wow, that's quite the change with only 1 small meal. I'm awfully relieved that it's going well for you!

No problem at all to try 2 food items this time - it was only the first meal that I was worried about, but it looks like it's already beefing-up and looks considerably more healthy, so I'd say go for it. Another meal will do it a world of good, and as long as you keep the fresh water coming, it's system should be in good shape and you shouldn't have any problems.

I can't wait to see how good it's going to look in a few more weeks

Shows the color alot better after the shed!

Also there's no problem with offering 2 fuzzies at one sitting is there?
XxRedDevilxX Posted - 17/10/2011 : 06:10:16
You are right for sure now cdn. He ate yesterday then shed today. So must have been hungry... I read right before a shed they don't have an appetite... I'm going to wait till the day after tomorrow and offer another fuzzy... That should put my baby right on track... Also I got some really beautiful pics after the shed I'll post them in a min...

I'm *so* glad it ate for you! Keep us updated on how it's doing :)

gmac Posted - 16/10/2011 : 01:10:59
nice result,

and agree with CDN to the feeding regime.
XxRedDevilxX Posted - 15/10/2011 : 23:27:59
Just ate.. Great appetite I believe... CDN I think you were right about the feeding.. I'm going to try another in a few days and two per week after that till I see a little growth then I'll go up in feeding again... here's a pic enjoy..

XxRedDevilxX Posted - 15/10/2011 : 19:08:55

I'm probably not the guy to talk to about feeding schedules, I've never used one, but others certainly do and can give you some advice there.

As long as you start slow with this snake - probably just 1 item to start and let it digest - you'll probably be okay. It's in a weakened state, so it can't take a full belly at the moment.

Once it's eating and you're sure it's going to be fine, it's up to you how much you offer it

Feel free to hit the link in my signature and find my contact info if you need more assistance. It's Friday night and most folks that could give you other valuable info won't be around for a while.
