She ate!!

Pandora finally ate for me :)
I'm really happy right now cos I gave her a chick last night and she showed no interest whatsoever but i went to check after school and it was a success!!!! Chick was no more so i'm super happy now as it's her first feed with me and her first feed since october 2010!

fantastic news Joe, i had terrible trouble with a non feeder several years ago, it would drive you mad

Thanks Marty :) Yeah i'm glad i only had to put up with it a small while!!! I'd be real worried lol

Great news Joe,hope she contiues to do so for ye.

That's fab pet, it's so rewarding when they finally feed after a fasting spell! i had the same this morning with two total anorexic royals

That's great news Joe and I hope this is the first of many :)

Thanks everyone :)
Thats great Lisa!

Hi Joe
I'm really glad she has finally fed for you, did you use a chick to try and get her to feed or do you intend to keep her on them?
John

is pandors a box? is it a royal? glad it finally ate for you joe, it can be annoying when they dont, ask my etb and my fingers how annoyed both are.
i had a big female royal(snake-ni has/had her) went of food for 19 months one time then started eating out of the blue one day. that must be close to a record..............................

Always a great feeling when they eat.
I have found that after they eat once try them again in 3-4 days as they are usually still in the mood which can kick start their feeding response properly.

Good luck.

Hi John, well i bought the one chick hoping it would get her feeding for me.....I'll try her on a rodent next week and if she doesn't take it then i'll just have to keep feeding chicks and maybe pop a small mouse down the hatch after to keep it a varied diet as possible. all my snakes get chicks (except the 2010 royal) every now and again for a bit of a varied diet. they love them!
@Trunx lol!! Your brother told me that and my jaw dropped!! 19 months is an insane amount of time!! I'd have died of nerves lol
@Steve, never heard that thanks mate i'll try her tomorrow so :)

you could always try scenting a rodent with a chick joe. iv had fussy royals ive had to chain feed rats after chicks........................

Thats another idea i hadn't thought of! thanks dude, i'll give it a whirl tomorrow:)
