| You say you have tried just about everything else. Have you got your hands on some used mice, gerbil, hamster bedding or some lizard bedding to put the pinky in a bag of it so it starts smelling of the rodent/lizard? Have you actually cut the pinky in half just behind the front legs rather than just braining it? |

| That's an idea, changed my mind, not going to pet shop today as don't need it till next week, if the bedding is pine based which it probably is, is it still ok to use? |

I am sure the rodents you buy for all your snakes are kept on shavings that may contain pine. You only need to put the pinky in with some of the bedding to gain the scent of the animals droppings etc then remove the pinky to feed. Its the actual oils in the pine bedding that some feel can cause problems if a snake breathes the fumes from the oils in for any amount of time. |

How often are you offering to her?
Also, you taken her to the vets for a faecal test or anything yet?
I do hope she takes for you soon, I had my little Hognose girl go off for a while, and because she was so small, I was very worried :S |
