Hello my name is Breana, I use to come on this site a lot! I posted a few times about my snake Karma.
He is now a pretty big boy:)
Well just last night, I took a two hour drive to get a little girl who is not a big fan of eatin.
She's four months, and needs to be assist fed.
Today I assist fed her and she did great. She's a very cute girl.
I am also curious of what her morph is on color? Thank you guys for looking at these beautiful babies :)
And please!! I need name ideas!! The only one I have so far is iris. :)

Here's a few pictures of karma :)

Cute girl! She looks like an amel to me. She looks a little on the thin side, but I'm sure she'll fill in with regular feedings.
 
Yes she is very skinny :/ what would you recomend the feeding schedual? I have to force feed because she won't eat on her own. The lady that gave her to me had to do such as well.
 
At her age and size, I would be attempting to feed her every five days or possibly sooner if she's roaming around earlier than that and you're sure she's digested. Force feeding can be pretty stressful for her, so I would try some of the tricks and tips here: http://www.cornsnakes.com/forums/showthread.php?t=131573

For her next feeding, the first thing I would try is wait until evening to feed her. Put her in a small container, like a deli cup, in a dark quiet place for half an hour. Heat up a pinky mouse really hot by thawing it and then dipping it in boiling water. Drop it in the container with her, close the lid and leave her completely alone for an hour in the dark. Check on her in an hour and if she hasn't eaten, reheat the pinky and leave her overnight with it.

By the way, is the picture of the snake next to the pinky a picture of her? I just noticed the borders on that snake are really wide, but it doesn't look like that on the other photos.
 
The picture next to the pinkie was the picture the old owner sent me
And Okay I will try that
Do eaters like these ever start eating normally ?
 
Awww. She's so cute. I hope you can get her to start eating on her own.
For name ideas, I do like Iris, but I will throw a couple more out there, because it's always fun to have choices. If you want to name her something with a red theme, I got Scarlett, Claret, Crimson, Rose Madder, Amaranth, Ruby, Auburn, Caramine, Cherry, Cerise, and Coral.
Some other names I thought were cute are: Poppy, Penelope, Indigo, Patience, Calliope, Ginger, Rayna, Empress, Gemini, Sunset, Summer, Pansy, and Orchid.
Good luck with her. I hope you find a name you like. :)
 
She(?) looks a bit like a Reverse Okeetee, or an Extreme Reverse Okeetee..

From my experience, she will eventually eat on her own.. Though it may be a while.
 
No, she's not an RO. The picture of the baby snake with the pinky is a different snake. You can see the saddle border width and the pattern don't match up between the snake in the hands, and the snake with the mouse.
 
so its two different baby snakes?! that was weird... lol good catch! I just looked at the pic where it was easier to see the baby... odd though... I don't think I understood the post at all....

I totally agree, you got a different snake than what you paid for. The one with the pinky has much more defined white borders than the others.

But as long as you love her, no worries!

And, if you are still looking for a name, today IS Valentine's day, and she DOES look like a valentine with the heart on her head and her beautiful red coloring, I vote for "Valentine" as a name!
 
She was free cause she wasn't eating. She said she was force feeding and sent that picture. I picked her up and took the other pictures. She died last week because she kept regurging. I took her to the vet and she died with them.
I'm guessing the old owner never actually got her to eat. I lost no expenses, but im very sad I couldn't help this little girl :/
 
Oh sweetheart, I am so sorry. I have lost a few like that, I think someone upstairs had better plans for them. You did your best, you did right by her, she was "too beautiful for this world".
