Hi again ive had my royal Rudi 4 weeks now and still hasnt even looked like feeding should i be getting worried or is this quite normal he hasnt lost any weight and ive tried all the different ways of feeding nothing seems to get him interested??
1 tip use. one of my pythons wont touch a rat until he has had a starter of a mouse pinkie now i know thats way to small for him but he wont eat the rat unless he has had a pinkie

just looked at your setup i would say your royal feels real insercure. either get a 9L RUB and pack that out or add bout 2-3 more hides some fake follage some tissue tubes the more packed out it is the safer your royal will feel. it might not look as good from your point of view but your royal will appricate it.
no its favorite hide is one of those that looks like a bunch of big peebles with holes in the back never seems to come out of there even put a mouse in there all night the last time n he didnt touch it??
ive just bought a 2 year old corn and shes in a rub is it safe to give them a good clean out and swap them over maybe this will work ?? if i do this will i have to leave them another week to let them get used to the new surroundings??
thanks for the help really appriciated hope this gets him feeding should i try him with a feed before moving them about??corns due feed tomorrow royal today??
i would try your royal as normal before the move, but if no luck leave it 5-7 days. with your corn if it has been feeding often then move and try in 5 days. corns are a bit less stressed then royals
