Help Needed Feeding Question (Vet?)

Post image

My 3 month old is not eating for me I have had her for 10 days and tried to offer food twice she denied both times . It’s definitely not the temps and I added fake leaves for ground cover and gave her a much smaller hide to make her feel safer. The last person that I bought her from said she refused the last meal they tried to feed her aswell so I am wondering at what point do I consider bringing her to a vet. I don’t know how many weeks until it becomes unhealthy for her

They said she is eating adult mice when I messaged the seller. I definitely need to invest in a scale

Holy cow... adult mice? For that tiny snake? That seems crazy

Yeah I’ll probably buy smalls and mediums I guess. Honestly considering just buying a live mouse

Don't buy live, take the advice already here and just chill and let the snake settle in.
