Hello. well Boris hasnt eaten for 3 weeks now. That's not all though. When I came in from work at 1am he was in his water bowl. Got up this morning & he is still there. He doesnt have mites and I cant see any sign of a shed. (do Pastels eyes go blue?) Any advice? |

Phew thanks for that. Do Pastels eyes go blue? It's really weird seeing his eyes move to look at things when Im used to Sas' blank look lol. |

3 weeks is nothing to worry about,Just go over your setup to check for problems.How is he heated and what do you measure your temps with? |

He has a blue bulb on a Habistat and I have digital thermometers. Sas' set up is exactly the same. |

Can't they see blue light somewhat,I thought it was red light that snakes couldn't see,at the other end of the spectrum to blue.Is it the moonlight heatlamp you're using?

They have a 100wt heat lamp. Been back to the reptile shop. They said he is fine. They also said he spent quite a lot of time in his water bowl when they had him! They said if he hasnt eaten in 3/4 weeks then they will try him on a gerbil or a hamster. At least they put my mind at rest. He is so different from Sas. |

Yay! Boris has finally munched his rat! I dangled it in front of his house and he struck from nowhere! Frightened the s**t out of me! Now Sas has left his! Oh well! |
