ARGH

Seriously. The next person who takes a look at a photo of Anthony and immediately starts giving me advice on what I'm doing wrong is going to get beat over the head with a brick! It's happened on LJ, it happened on the snake forums, it happened in a chat room, and now it's happened on Deviantart.

IF I NEEDED ADVICE I'D ASK FOR IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And the humorous mention of his initial fear of dinner is NOT asking for advice. Sheesh! A new snake not eating when one has had him for a mere four days is normal, you bunch of self-proclaimed experts! You should know this!

I am sorry to hear about this. I had the same problem when I first got my blue tongue skink. He didn't eat for nearly 2 months! We took him to the vet, they gave him stuff that should have made him hungry, but nothing. He would drink and all but no food. Then just out of no where, he ate out of the blue. It could be just the new environment, which what you said, is normal. Its a shock to them, and the stress doesn't help them much. Not saying you are doing anything wrong hon. As long as you have read up on them, I would guess you are doing everything right! Hope the people bugger off, and I still want to see pictures of this cutie! I haven't seen any yet.
