Hey guys and gals, so I am very much aware that ball pythons tend to go off feed from time to time sometimes for an extended amount of time without any issues. My question is when is enough enough. I have a het pied female that when I got her was my most aggressive feeder (as long as they prey was live) but now hasn't eaten in 3 months. She has lost right at 100 grams. I had originally attempted to convert her from live to f/t with no luck but that seems to be where her reluctance to eat started. She is kept in a 28 qt tub in the rack with all my other BP's paper as a substrate. I have tried pretty much everything I have read to entice her to eat I have tried different sized rats, tried mice. Tried moving her location, placed her in a smaller tub, with hide without hide etc. temp and humidity is correct. She sometimes she seems somewhat interested but only momentarily and generally just moves away from the prey item. I am not horribly concerned yet as she still looks pretty healthy however I can tell that she has lost the weight. Thanks for looking.
