    Not eating

    My ball python hasn't been eating for about a month and a half now, and i doubt she's over a year old.

    Completely normal. They go on "hunger strikes" from time to time. You should only start worrying if she really starts losing a ton of weight, or if something doesn't seem right (mites, abnormal bowel movements, etc.)
    My girl's been a perfect weekly feeder, but she's been on a fast for almost 2 months now, I just helped her shed today so I'm keeping my fingers crossed she'll take something tonight.
