One baby snake...

Alright, I've heard that before.

It's just that I think it's too skinny.

Even for a baby..

It's like.... Really really thin, I don't know how to describe it.

Like.... Empty inside kinda thing...... Not skinny as width..

It might be underdeveloped and might not make it. However, forcing it to eat will likely kill it. It's you're choice to pick what you'll do with it in the end, but some babies just aren't fit for survival.

[frostyftw]

I'm not going to force feed it.. It's too small for that, in my opinion.

And I will keep trying to get it to eat.

[kibakiba]

Forcefeeding is never good, in my opinion.

[RedSidedSPR]

Whether it's skinny or plump, or doesn't need to eat this soon. May actually do more harm at this time than good.

Make sure it drinks water, though. Babies can dehydrate quickly. That may be part of the reason it looks thin.

Awesome... a thread in which I've had similar situation with. This year i had a baby that didn't shed when it was born and had problems shedding until i was able to get all of the old skin off. It looked like it was going to starve to death. But it was a couple weeks before i was able to get it to eat something and it seemed perfectly fine in that time line.
As for when it comes to trying to feed it. Try using feeder guppies, it shouldn't hesitate too much to eat them. And then try a few guppies with some worm pieces or pinkie pieces or small pieces of talapia. It'll get the taste for the other food while the movement of the guppies is attracting them to eat the other food as well. It's a great trick and hasn't failed for me yet.

My baby NW didn't eat until day 15. One ate for the first time yesterday. Be patient. Keep offering, but don't expect it to eat right away.

[frostyftw]

Alright, I'm just worried.

It'll work out though, I'm sure.

Also remember that they are full on mama's yolk, so they aren't starving. Be sure they have fresh clean water and are warm enough, but not too warm. You don't want to cook them. Keep the questions coming if you need help!
