Been trying to get a female royal to feed for ages now and was speaking to a mate of mine who suggested making a burrow for her, I messed about with the idea until I had this:
I tried leaving the food by the entrance but she wasn't interested so I tried sinking a hole at the opposite end and tryin that way:
Fingers crossed its worked, two small rats last night, 1 a couple of days before.
Sorry to bore everyone, just happy

Great news.
One of my females is not eating and I'm having to force feed her because she lost so much weight... stressed me out as much as the snake  .
