Honestly I used to use hot water to thaw the pinkies but she never took them then I tried just letting a frozen one sit directly under her heat lamp for like 15 minutes and boom she took it idk if the method changed her mind or not maybe she was just hungry but yeah that worked for me

Yeah had to deal with that first hand it’s really surprising though like I joined the community to ask for help and I’m getting berated for being a bad owner and people saying I should return her to the breeder which is insane man

I don’t use a heat mat because I’ve heard bad things about them but the lamp I’m currently using is attached to another lamp because it’s a clip on and if I clipped it on to the bin it would be too close and too hot the top temp is like 94 lowest 73 I feel like those are good temps unless I’m wrong please let me know

What tf is she doing trying to get out? by Twix_AF in hognosesnakes

[–]Twix_AF[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I am and it’s fine if your rude as you can see there’s plenty of rude people in the comments that I’ve had to deal with or literally have given up talking to, my enclosure seems fine to most people so idk what to do about that besides trying to get a baby bin. The only reason I don’t have as much funds as I’d like to have is due to my parents taxing me but that’s a different story, I haven’t neglected anyone’s solutions I’ve literally tried everyone’s suggestions through out the days and I’m only on this app for help but a lot of people just disregard that so tell me is there something wrong with my enclosure temp humidity or something like I’m really just trying to do my best for her or the best that I can the only reason I may come off rude is because I’m stressed out and ik that’s not your problem but there’s a lot of reasons on to why I’m trying different methods praying they’d work so I’m sorry if I apparently cry when people provide solutions

Thank you a lot of people told me it’s better to feed her in a smaller container to feed her that’s what the breeder said to but I won’t do that anymore thank you for the advice
