In Reply to: Just one other thing you might try...... posted by Rob Lewis on February 20, 2003 at 12:11:15:

I did try patiently representing them with the mice and when that didn't work I left them alone with the mice for about 2 hours. I'm going to try overnight next. The dollar value does add a bit of urgency to the situation. I'm just trying to plan ahead in case things don't go well. I also have to confess I've never gotten sand boas quite this tiny. (8, 8, and 6 grams). I have an adult male who hasn't eaten for 4 months and a female who hasn't eaten for 1. So I don't panic right away when snakes don't eat! I'm just not sure how quickly these babies might go downhill. I'm also worried that they're in the process of developing respiratory infections from how cold they got. That would complicate things. A pinkie pump is the first thing I thought of and if it works on those little greybanded kingsnakes I thought it might be good for KSB's. I'll probably check with my vet first. Thanks again!

P.S.A. Yep, 1100$. I've seen paradox albinos het p. snow go for 1000$ each and I've never seen a snow het paradox albino. Good deal. If they do ok.
