    Not Eating

    I have a young approx 2 month old bp that is usually a strong feeder. however today was feeding day and he decided not to eat. the other days his eyes seemed to be hazing over but they are fine now. would him going off feed be possible to an upcomming shed? i was going to offer him again on sunday to see if he takes it.

    Yes, it is possible that an impending shed would cause him to not want to eat. You can wait unitl he sheds out to feed him again. Some snakes will eat in shed and others not so much.
