Thanks to ALL who posted suggestions on getting my snake to eat. She finally ate a worm! I was getting very worried as we'd had her a month with no success. I put a small worm in a shallow dish and after about 36 hours, she ate it. Now she is very content. Again thanks to you all!

Re: Yay!!!!
I have a picture of my snake on my other post! Do snakes usually get very immobile after eating?

Try this: swallow a whole 8lb turkey making your sides bulge out and see if you feel like going hiking or playing racketball. Originally Posted by Mecca01

Re: Yay!!!!
Last night my new eastern (6 days) ate 6-8 (think should have counted I guess!) medium earthworms and has been in one of her hides all day! I am assuming that she ate them because they are not in the ceramic container with dirt that I put them and they are no where else in the tank!
She looks a little wider but not really!
She is a little cutie though but fast!!!
