I'm a new owner of a 3 year old snow corn. She is 5'3" and was very well taken care of and an incredible feeder. I brought her home last Saturday and gave her about 48 hours to adjust and I finally took her out, handled her for about 15 minutes and then put her in her feeding pen. She ate 2 adult mice, like the reptile store owner told me she ate, and she took them fine. I gave her a bit and then put her back into the viv. I left her alone for the 24 hours, and she seemed fine. I handled her again for about 5 minutes and put her back. Before I went to bed, I went in a checked on her and there was a half eaten mouse covered in substrate. I haven't been able to check for a second one because she seemed a little stressed and twitchy and I didn't want to put my hands in there and dig around. So far, I can't see the second. Is there something special I should be doing for her? Her hot side is at a steady 85 and her cool side in under 80 at all times. She has fresh water from a filter and her viv is the same one from the store and from the previous owner. Nothing has changed...not even the decorations and her hide. She was checked by a vet before I took her home and the vet said she was exceptionally healthy. I called the reptile store owner and she was baffled, and said that when they first received her, she has given her 3 mice and she was good with that.
If anyone has any clues as to what I'm doing rong, I would love to hear it and try anything I can to get her back to normal.
Thanks so much!
