Help needed with my Moluccan Scrub adult female who just will not eat!

Just read through this thread, my fiance keeps arus. They are usually trash compactors but the impacted front fang explains a lot. Good luck! Wishing you well for a full recovery.
 
Thank you all for the positive support
She came out of surgery seeming just fine
Course of antibiotics and a return visit scheduled in 2 weeks time to ensure all is going well and obviously if she goes downhill or see any problem then would be sooner!
Lets hope she gets back on track after this
 
I would imagine a sore mouth would definitely cause no eating. Watch out for that first feeding once she heals! Glad to see you spend money on it's health and best of luck!
 
I have a boa like that. If she doesn't try and take me out I think she's sick, lol.
 
Been a while since I updated but was waiting for good news to post.
Even after surgery she was still leary of trying to eat anything herself.
But today the stars aligned
She ate a small rat of her own complete volition, not even teased with it, just lay it down by her, she sniffed it and slowly ate it.
Now lets hope she continues in this vein and all of our hard work will be well worth the time and effort!
 
Things are definitely looking up!
She downed a slightly larger rat this morning with zero hesitation.
Think I am going to have to start watching my fingers with this girl as the usual "scrub" attitude will likely return with a few more meals inside her!
