Leucistic Rat Snake Not Eating , Please Help!!!

Posted by Michelle on February 22, 2002 at 18:33:33:

Hi,
My 7 month old rat snake won't eat, it's been a month now and she's lost .2 oz. I've tried everything to get her to eat ( open the skull, trying live bait,scenting the prey with chicken broth, and even tapping her to evoke eating,...) Her temps are 75-80 and she was doing fine until about a month ago. I'm worried any suggestions or tips to get her to eat would be greatly appreciated. I am scared because she looks like shes wasting away. :(
Thanks,
Michelle
