    I have one male that has been on and off for just over a year and a half.

    He has taken about six meals, and then skipped one... tomorrow is feeding day and he is nice and freshly shed... *fingers crossed*.

    This snake also came to me severely burned and was a rehab.

    I have a male that's been off feed since Dec, and another since Nov. The one since Nov did take a live rat in Jan, but hasn't eaten since.

    Re: How long has your bp gone off feed for?

    Most of our adults go off feed for 4-5 months each year during breeding season. We do have one female normal who is just a pet who has gone 8 months with out eating. She is over 4000 grams and healthy so I try not to worry too much.
