Well the little snot struck at me through the glass last night. I was walking past, and he struck. Walked back, and he coiled up, ready to strike again. Spent the rest of the night exploring his home.
I almost got a picture of it, woke up to see him coming all the way down from his branch to drink from his waterdish, so he's certainly drinking outside of the spray.
Yeah, in hindsight that should've been how I went, I didn't expect it to be this hard to get F/T to work/ find live here, I...
Yeah, I tried with the chicken broth the other night (when I started getting all worried) he watched it for a bit, but I guess it got cold since he just forgot it existed apparently.
Thank you so very much! I knew force feeding was a bad idea, I just got worried.
Yeah this is an advanced species, and I've been watering him the way you said (and watching him drink!) so I know he's doing that well. Killing is no issue for me, like at all. They're mice. Would a feeder anole...
Yeah. I'm just so used to balls that eat 4 days to a week after being homed in. Do GTPs take far longer? I didn't read anything on this occurring, just people saying some are finicky.
He has plants to hide with next to both of his branches (varying heights) as I gathered you don't use hides with GTPs. He has only been handled once, and that was during me attempting to get him to eat via force feeding. I said in the post it's fuzzy mice. I started with just holding the mouse...
My ball pythons take prekilled super easy, why won't this guy? Ambient temperature is about 77-80 degrees, heat spot is around 90-92. Has a water dish but I still spray and directly give him water.
I have tried everything I can think of aside from live, even force feeding, and this little thing won't eat! It's not a baby since it's starting to turn green, but it refuses to eat any prekilled, I even tried to force feed him and he just regurgitated it almost immediately. I'm at wits end for...
