Re: Snake Update

He's looking a little skinny, Matt. I know he hasn't eaten in about three weeks; look at his ventral side (belly) and see if he has a concave appearance with ribs showing on both sides. If so, and if he doesn't decide to eat on his own a few days to a week after you get the spectacle off, you should consider force feeding him. You'll have to use fresh fish or a pinkie, though. I think he's a little too skinny to put into a short hibernation, but others may have a different opinion. Let us know about that poop, okay? Is his tank clean, and does he still have plenty of hides?
