Baby Red Tail Boa feeding

New baby RTB het snow feeding

If you are wondering why I pick her up in the video whiel shes constricting its because I wanted to move her to the middle of the tub, instead she had her tail wrapped around a wire so I couldnt do that

Anyway, not going to be picking her up again during feeding time :) she almost tagged me after the vid ended

Thanks for watching!

My baby red tail boa only ate once... frozen thawed prey... fuzzy pinky mice... hes 6months old do you have any advice

@zeusownz

Sorry ive been really busy and out of town lately. But I would recommend trying live hoppers to stimulate his feeding response. if live doesn't work trying splitting the head open (sounds grusome and gross but it does the trick some times!)

If all fails try assist feeding. if 2 - 3 attempts at assist feeding doesn't work then you would go on to force feeding

Hopefully it doesn't come to that. Good luck!
