There are so many variables to getting youngsters to eat. Temps, Humidity, even wether or not they were destined to survive (not all will that's just a fact of life). Though I have say after 2 weeks I would guess most should've shed, are they still absorbing yolk sacks? Was there anything odd about thier hatching...early? Late? ect.

Since I haven't bred burms, I'm just speaking in general terms here.

I've seen some shed later than 2 weeks and some not eat in the 1st month with no problems... but I was playing with retics. What Brad said is all true but you might want to message Bebo or Sam and get their feedback. Good Luck!!!

I recommend talking with Sam or Jim like others have suggested. I just got my first clutch as well and not all of mine have shed yet and they are two weeks old. The last on started into blue today. All of mine have eaten but one, but I only have five.

I would not sweat it to much we had some babies shed a week after hatching and then some of the little buggers waited a full month to shed.We also had some eat 2 days after hatching(not the norm but neither am I lmao).But we also had a bunch wait till after they shed so just give them time.I like to offer live crawlers or pinks as they can not bite the snake and you can also leave it in the tote with them..

Anyways give it time....
