How Long?

How Long Without Eating?

Quick question, how long before I need to start worrying about one of my hatchlings? He/She hatched the last week of June, and has yet to eat. After the first shed, he/she bit the f/t pinky but no go. That was the closest to eating as he/she got.

This hatchling is housed alone, with appropriate temperatures and ample water. All attempts have been in a smaller feeding container. I have tried braining, leaving in a paper bag overnight, tease feeding as in the Corn Snake Manual.

I have not yet attempted an anole or scenting as anoles in my part of the world are about $15.

All other siblings have eaten several times on f/t without a problem. This little one remains very active and climbs his/her encloser nightly.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks!
