...I like it here more :) I also already posted this in the boa forum....I just got an atb say about 3 weeks ago. I got it on a sunday and didn’t feed it till the next one. I gave him/her a live pinkie and it ate it easy. Last weekend I tried a f/t pinkie, didn’t eat it. Same day I tried a few crickets, didn’t eat them. I thought it had to do with not being used to its enclosure yet or something but then why would it have eaten a live one the week before? and Just yesterday, I tried feeding it a f/t pinkie again but it wouldn’t eat it. What else can I feed it? should I try an anole?

Sometimes with ATB’s you have to ween them off live. You start with live and slowly switch to scented f/t, then f/t. Or try an anole as a last resort... I don’t have ATB’s but I read about them a lot because I was going to get them... They can go a long time without food as long as they are healthy...
