heat mat is at the right hand side but he has settled a bit stilkl active but not as much now
have you got any margarine tubs you can make holes in to make him smaller secure hides or cut down plants pots..anything that will help him to feel secure and does not make him feel exposed to bigger prey animals..

wee update taz doing much better sleeping during day active later in day but is still not eating 4 weeks now but the shop i got him from offerd to keep him and get him feeding so if he does not eat on friday hell be going to the shop on sat ps thatnx for all posts
good luck with feeding friday night. i have just read through the thread here. How are you heating the food Item. i know a lot of people have different methods. but it is also possible to over heat the item which can give off a burnt or cooked scent to the snake and put them off.
has been any tongue flicking or coming over to investigate the food at all. Getting her back to the shop if she doesn't feed is probably the best thing you could done. i have had to do the same with one of mine recently and have just collected her back once I was happy and she was feeding ok.
do you know if she had eaten at all before you took her home. You said she was nine week old and you have had her almost 4weeks now. so she could not have eaten a great deal before.
Any way fingers crossed and keep us posted i see that WS was looking after you anyway so you were in vry good hands.

new home looks a lot better but cant tell from the vid. Can you see through all for sides? It would be a good idea too get some black card and cover up 3 of the side just to allow the snake to feel a bit more secure.
