Hello :) and help!

I agree, 100x50x50 should be enough. I know of people who successfully keep them in smaller enclosures than this. But as Stefan says, "the bigger, the better".

Your rule of thumb is a minimun length to be at least equal to the snakes length.

As I said last Wednesday...the time has come to force-feed. Try reading through this thread, Seppe.

i already did
but i dont know how to get the mouth of the snake open
and i am scared that i will damage the snake because it is so tiny

[adamanteus]

You can gently pry the mouth open with a finger nail or similar. I think the risk is now worth it, or surely the last one will be dead very soon indeed.

i tryed it and it wasnt easy
but know snake has verry little fish but i think it is at the point of dying because the mouth is still open but he still breaths what do you think ?

[adamanteus]

Did you get some food into him? All you can do now is disturb him as little as possible (to minimize stress) and hope he pulls through. Keep us informed, Seppe. Good luck.

i hope he pulls through sweety. good luck!

thanks but i have put him back in his enclosure he is there now for about 2 hours and he has moved a little bit and he still has his mouth a little open so i dont know if he is going to make it he has had a little bit of food and he is lying in his cage as if he is dead but he is alive because i can see him breething so i hope he will make it
