I remember seeing a mini doc about a 7 or 8 year old girl who had never eaten in her life, she lived off of iv drips even though there was nothing "wrong" with her and she was fully capable of eating food on her own

​@@KaiSub if we're thinking of the same girl and documentary, the issue was that when she was born, something was wrong with her digestive system and she couldn't eat. It got fixed surgically but she never had interest in eating even when she could have because she didn't feel a need to start. Her parents did eventually get her the right help to start eating some, though, so hopefully she's okay now.

I rescued one like that once, had been given to a pet store as a surender, would not eat. Did not have much time left in this life, but she started eating for me after a couple of aids...and some peace and quite in a correct set up. Rehomed her once she was nice and healthy.

her half way through the pinky: "i cant believe you've done this"

I’ve never seen force feeding happen until today. I am today years old to finally know what it looks like.

Beautiful Lucy 😢

The way her skin is sitting on the skeleton almost makes me think she may be a lil dehydrated but I'm no snake expert

This is why some people end up feeding live. Although it is generally frowned upon, it is more natural. Of course it don't always solve the eating issues but can work really well.

Oh my goodness 😢 you got this little baby! Don’t give up!! ❤❤❤

I had a highway bp who did the same with me. I tried everything under the sun and she would not eat for me. I assist fed and ultimately ended up having to force feed. She didn’t make it unfortunately. They can be very finicky eaters.

She's so beautiful! I hope she does better! ❤

Aw. I hope she recovers well!

May I try to keep her. I have a piedball who didn't want to eat at first, but had taken well to live every 7 days. I can give this young lady what she deserves if you would like her to have a great chance and not worry about taking up your time. I'm sure she'll turn out great.

THE SNAKES ARE SO ADORABLE AISHSQGKAIAYSGVZJSPWOSCHD

I have a Mexican Rosy Boa that I had to feed like that for about the first year I had him. One time after I placed the F/T hopper in his mouth, he coiled around it and ate it. All feedings after that he did it on his own. All have been live with zero issues.

Honestly thank you for an example of this, my baby is relatively good about eating, but he is also the smallest from his clutch & sometimes he just won’t eat (luckily he will usually eat a couple pinky mice even if it’s not as nutritious or as big as he could eat, he seems to be more comfortable eating them) I just really appreciate seeing an example of this in case he starts starving himself. He has a great set up, but I’m planning on converting his home to bioactive and seeing if that helps him to feel more comfortable and confident.

She's so beautiful 😍 hopefully she will do better soon!

Poor baby

Oh my god when you closed her mouth after outing the food in like "ok now eat". That shit was adorable.

Great work

Without my eyewear, l thought the thumbnail was something about making pretzels.😂

Had to assist feed my ball python 😢 3 years later and he’s very healthy and only skips meals while in shed!

"it's already halfway down, guess I'll just eat it now"

I showed my mom and she said ew what's that the skinless snakes haha🤣

It's so funny how he grabs the hatchlings like "yoink" and the hatchling is like "???"

I had to assist feed a baby boa yesterday for exactly the same reason. She's half the size of her siblings.

I'd love to have this little sweetie, even if I had to assist-feed her for every single meal. I know it's not the best circumstances, but as long as she's healthy otherwise...

They are so stinkin cute! ❤️🐍🥺🥰

This was so helpful. I have a 3 month old that won’t eat 😢 Thank you!

Snake: i don't wanna-AAAGH!

Having trouble getting snakes to eat is why my husband stopped breeding his pythons. On the second batch of them refusing food, assist feeding and fighting uphill just to get them to live he called it quits.

Snake: I don't want to eat Owner: **grabs neck** i wasn't asking

She kinda acts like a baby, "i dont want it its gross- oh wait, thays actually pretty good"

I got one recently who wouldn't take mice at all... I think her breeder raised her on pinky rats (that's what she's struck at on herown after refusing pinky mice for MONTHS and being assist fed also for a couple months). I'm sure you've figured something out already, but in the future maybe try pinky rats on stubborn eaters as well if you think it might be different enough to get them curious?

Aww she's a beauty

Awww poor baby just needed a crash course on how to eat

BEL are my fave BP. They’re so perfect! Especially this little lady.

I thought that first snake was an unbaked pretzel for moment..😂

"I do this by pushing the head of a small meal" Her: GAAAAAAUUUUUGGGHHHH

Oh noes, hope she comes around. I bet she'll be a sweetheart in personality

Poor baby. At least you’re doing everything you can to make sure she doesn’t die.

My BEL is also a menace for food. Girl drops into cold weather mode at the slightest provocation and getting her out of it is always a fight. I love her. I’ll do whatever is necessary to keep her healthy. But I swear she’s going to be the reason I start drinking one of these years. 😂

She was like “AAHH WTF U DOING GET THAT AWAY FROM M- HURRGHGHUGHGHH

Have you tried gerbils? I've known a handful of BPs who would only take gerbils (mine will only take mice.) Picky picky snakes lol.

she's amazing

At first I thought it was a lump of marzipan

Aww poor girl..even her color looks a little off. U can definitely tell she's not feeling to hot just by how slow she moves and how she acts. So glad she got at least 1 meal down. 😊 Never thought i would be saying this but...im praying 🙏 for your sickly bab🐍😢😊 ❤

I'm such a fatty, i really thought they were snake cakes until they moved 😢😢😢 i need sleep! They are beautiful babies and i hope baby girl thrives ❤

Trick I learned with pitted snakes like pythons was quickly dipping food into hot water before feeding, it stimulates their pits and triggers a eating response because they sense the heat, maybe give that a try?

She couldn't figure that danger part of 'danger noodle' out😂 thankfully she ate! Hoping for an update soon ❤

I Hope the little sweety is better now

We found that our bull python we had would only eat in the dark so we got different heat lamps.

I'm honestly so lucky my ball python was not an issue when it comes to eating... which was what I was most afraid of but she had taken every meal I gave except for one when she was in shed but I couldn't tell lol... hope she will continue with that... but it's good to see how to assist feed if it ever came down to me having to do so...

She is a gorges runt and probly will turn out better than the rest❤❤❤

I had to do this once when one of my babies just refused his food. Thankfully now he’s able to it by himself, it’s a last resort if all else fails

Hopefully she's doing well now.

I’d take her as a snake lover but I’m not allowed to have a snake..

I thought the snake was a white pretzel at first

Good luck she’s a beauty.

She's beautiful

That was a super clean assist feed.

Yay!!! So pretty

My senior cornsnake wasn't eating for a while after he became blind due to debeloping cataracts in both eyes. I was worried I would have to try force feeding him. Thankfully he started eating again and he's regained weight.

This happened to the ball python i used to own. Bought her as a baby and she was eating fine frozen thawed pinkies at first. She refused to eat a couple times after and I ended up assist feeding her a pinky, which she accepted. She continued to refuse to eat again after, regurgitating the next pinky I attempted to feed her. She passed away not long after.

Aww, poor little baby ;3;

Poor little thing...glad you had some success.

THEY ARE SO CUTE

Had to do the same for my snake had someone help me and was worried we’d have to euthanize her cause we had to do 3 rounds of assist feeds. 2 years later and my girl learned to eat and is big and healthy!

She is so cute 💙

Ngl I thought they were ceramic snakes
