Snake Updates and a new way to get Ball pythons to eat

Lyion

~♪Sorry and Thanks♪~
So, I haven't really been on in a while, and I figured I should update everyone on each of my three.

Xia has grown tremendously, and is, sadly developing eggs as I can feel. She's currently around 200 grams of steel, considering she's a stubby three feet. She's being growing great!

For those of you who didn't know, my yearling Wyrm, was lost for seven months outside. We found him on our doorstep late October, and he is now parasite free and nearly tame again.

Now, let me describe my biggest challenge. Rosco is a three year old rescue male who had mites and decided not to eat for me. The mites are no longer there, but he had still refused to eat for around four months. Considering he is a ball, that wouldn't usually be of too much concern. However, he was also refusing to drink, and beginning to become lethargic, pale and wrinkly. I immediately brought him into the vet, where it was discovered that he was shockingly the same weight, but obviously dehydrated. The vet orally gave him fluids but included an appetite enhancing vitamin, vitamin b. He instructed us to get a clay pot , carve a hole big enough for him to enter and exit, turn it upside in his viv, put mouse urine inside, thaw an ft rat or prekilled without getting it wet and put him in the viv. We left the room, all lights off, for around ten minutes, and when we came back, it was gone. It's been two days since then.


Wish him and me luck!
