Royals are notorious for being bad feeders!!!

My 2 are fabulous eaters and are now 9 and 13 years old..

My advice would be to feed a week to the day after you get him.. make sure you have the viv at the right temp/humidity and plenty fresh water..
Always place the food in the same place each time... make sure they have a hide..

If he still refuses then hold him in one hand and the food in the other with tongs and hold it very near to him...he should strike.. I had some youngsters to bring on and the only way they would eat was if the food was warm.. so.. place it in a bag and put it on top of a radiator for 5 minutes.. or in a bag and then into some hot water..(don't get it wet tho)

wow what a fab snake!!#


we only have corn snakes at ur college - one who loves to bite

my mate has 2 corn snakes - he wants more though lol

He is beautiful, hope he feeds soon. They are fascinating creatures

Agree, Tango only eats from the hand too, and ours son,s king snake has to have his from the radiator. Think some are fussy gritters
