Anywho, I know some bull snakes might slow down and stop eating at certain times of the year. My young and probably less than six month old bull snake refused his last meal. I tried feeding him a few days later to no avail. My other bull snake, who I believe is a little younger, attacks mice like an Ethiopian would attack an all you can eat buffet. The male has eaten pretty well until recently. I always thought the seasonal shut down wouldn't happen till they were a few years old. I was just looking for some input. These are my first pituophis so I don't entirely know what to expect in my month and a half of experience with them.
