Are they still babies when they feed on whole mice?

[jeanette]

wow they are very cute, very similar in looks as babies to corn snake hatchlings. Absolutely stunning
i think im going to go to the IHS show this summer to see what they have in the way of Garters, Lots of reptile nuts go so i might be in with a chance of a bargain.

[Lulu Bennett]

thank you very much jeanette.
Welcome to the forum btw. its great to see more UK based members joining, it is making the uk reunion look all the more interesting

[Lulu Bennett]

guys, i can still only get the same 5 to eat. 11 still havn't touched a thing.
when should i start worrying?
any tips?

[Snaky]

They can take a few weeks without food.

You can try a living fish in a shallow water dish. The movement of the fish might trigger the snakes.

Otherwise if you think it's necessary, you can forcefeed them once. Usually they'll start eating after you did it once...

First of all, congrats Lulu !!! (kind of late reaction )

I agree with Hans, if the food is moving it could work.
And you can consider force feeding if nothing else works. Last year we bought a cyrtopsis ocellatus of wich we knew he wasn't eating by himself. We have force fed him several times and then suddenly he start eating by himself.

Good luck
