Force-feeding after only three weeks is, at best, premature, and at worst, detrimental and possibly the cause of your snake's death. The fact that you are "very experienced" at force-feeding is possibly cause for concern, as I have been keeping snakes for nearly twenty years and and can count on one hand the number of snakes for whom I have found force-feeding necessary. Because you jumped the gun, it is no longer possible to say whether or not Ben Siegel Reptiles is responsible for the deceased snake. In the future, I would only recommend force-feeding when a snake has lost a significant amount of weight, more than it could lose in three weeks. Some snakes take longer than others to adjust to a new environment.
