ok so I recently got a dumerils boa. its been a few weeks and ive not been able to get her to eat f/t. im soon to try feeding her live but would rather not.
my question is if any of you have any tips to try and get her eating f/t?

Get it started with a live fuzzy mouse, thats safe enough then switch over to ft fuzzys

I was concerned about having a tough time switching our new red tail to f/t, but he took a rat pinky and 2 quail chicks w/out any special preparation. He did take a few minutes to figure out what to do with the first quail chick, but didn't have that issue the 2nd time.

sorry for taking so long to reply.
turns out she wouldn't even eat a live fuzzy!!
ive now tried everything and she still wont eat.
this last week I raised up her temps a little thinking maybe its to cold, but still nothing. starting to get worried now.
when I got her I was told 75low-85high for temps. I have about 50% humidity.
now the temps are at 78-88(thinking maybe she was to cold).
she seems perfectly happy in there. she uses both her hides and often times I will find her out resting on top of the log.
im not sure what to do!!
