    You can try if he is due for a feeding. But, he may not eat. I just rescued 2 adult BP's that where about to shed. But, since they hadn't been fed in over a month I tried to feed them both once I got them home. One ate and one didn't!

    Yup, definitely try to feed, some snakes eat, some don't. Mine definitely does, but my good friend has one who won't. It's just a matter of getting to know your snake. If your snake is young it'd be best to try to feed it because it'll need all the food it can get for growing strong

    There's no reason they can't eat when they are in shed. If it's the normal day you feed it on, go ahead and offer. I feed on the same day regardless of who is or isn't shedding. The only silly ones are the youngins who don't quite have everything figured out yet.

    Mine vary, sometimes they will and sometimes they wont. One of my girls eats all the time but I may have to heat the head up a little more for her to take it.
