    Stubborn Ribbon eats at last

    Yay me, finally Drussila my Ribbon snake has broken her hunger strike! Shes just not eaten for close to 6 weeks or so and wsa starting to lose a little weight. Again a left a pinky to see if she'd show an interest and by this morning had gone! Hopefully she will be back to her voracious self.

    Congratulations on the successful feeding. It is stressful when one decides to go on a hunger strike.

    That's great news, Dan. Let's hope she starts to eat in earnest again now. Keep us updated.

    Certainly was a bit worriesome, I figure its either the weather or because I moved her to a bigger tank, will try feeding her again tonight!
