| You may want to let your snake settle into its new surroundings for a week or so without trying to get it out again. It will be nervous in new surroundings so feels threatened, hence the tail shaking. If you are really nervous bout getting it out next time, try letting it come out to you?? |

| at the moment i tried to feed it this morning sat ans the snake not interested so i'm guessing she's off her food due to the move |

| Try not to worry, leave it till monday night and try slightly smaller prey till she gets going again. What did they say she was eating when you bought her?..Oh, and well done on getting her whole set up, should make her feel right at home,which is always good. |

| they told me she was eating large mice every week but i think a large mouse might be to big for her atm as she seems to avoid the mouse like she is scared |

| Hey there, Scarpetta did this with us when she was first settling in, it's their visual defensive when they are unsure or don't want bothered. leave her a little bit longer and she'll soon settle in she just has to get used to your scents |
