Hey all,
I have a ?? for those who know Brazilian Rainbow Boas. Mine hasn't eaten since Aug 6 th and it has me worried as she used to eat a lg rat every week. Her cage is kept at about 85 degrees and between 70 -90% humidity. The only thing that has changed, besides our location is I added a Repti-Fogger so I would be able to keep her humidity more constant and stable. I hate spray bottles! The other odd thing is that she has shed every month since she quit eating. I have tried feeding her at different times of day ranging from about noon, up to about 8:00 pm. I always feed her fresh killed rats, out of her cage. I have now tried to feed her fresh killed out of her cage, in a big tote, in the guest bathtub, )we never have guests and it gets bleached after snakey is put away), on the floor where she can be stretched out, everywhere I can think of. I am getting ready to move from Denver to Everett Wa. and would like her to at least get a decent meal before we start our family trek. Any thoughts are welcome.
Thanks,
Bill
P.S.- She does not seem to have lost much weight, if any. The guy who runs the reptile shop I got her from says she looks good.
