Since getting my first three babies, Nagini, Zephyr and Nimbus, on 18/09/12, Nagini has for a variety of reasons not fed. Luckily her last feed was 17/09 so I wasn't too concerned. Following their 7 day rest, she went into blue and was hiding and despite being offered at the same time as the others, didn't eat anything.
She eventually shed  and I offered twice since then but nothing. Today was feeding day, the others being 'snakes' snakes' struck and fed beautifully and again Nagini slithered away  I then left the pinky in with her for an hour, still nothing I brained the pinky, still nothing...Earlier, I was reading a book by Kathy Love where it recommended several things to entice the reluctant feeder, including the above and also putting snakey into a 4" tub with airholes with the food and leaving them to it. Checked 5 mins later and pinky devoured...CRACKED IT lol (well fingers crossed)
Anyway, some pics to keep you entertained (some special ones for Kev  )

They really are pretty aren't they? (Seth is my favorite too but don't tell the others ;o))
I do however feel that Seth needs some brothers and sisters Kev so do bear that in mind lol He's just sooo lovely and spends all his time on me winding in and out of my fingers, I don't even need to watch what he is doing! Also likes just sitting in my hair (which I worry about coz I don't know whether he can absorb nasties from the dye??) |

I use Kathy Love's book quite a lot as well, it was the first ever one I'd read about corn snakes, and still one of my favorites. |
