I was just wondering if any of your snakes have gone in the fasting period yet because my 2 bps havent...and if so when they started fasting?

Re: Fasting!
Most of my males that are 1 year or older have fasted for the last couple weeks. We had an early cold spell in WI and that started them off on the fast. I except them to eat about once a month now until spring.

Re: Fasting!
Mine has been fasting for 2 weeks now...I always feel anxious when this happens and generally for no reason at all!

Re: Fasting!
Oh that's interesting because my snakes haven't...I live in southern California it's still a lil bit hot during the day but it's starting to get chilly...so if my snakes start fasting will they reject food for like months or will they eat once a while?...it's my first year with 'em and I don't know what to expect if they fast...

Re: Fasting!
It's my first year too. My 09 lemon pastel male started fasting at 525g, he is eating a mouse once in a while. He used to eat small rats. :tears:

Re: Fasting!
All of mine are still pounding food right now (I've probably just jinxed myself).
Each animal is different on how long they'll fast.

Re: Fasting!
Only one of my males is fasting but I've got 6 females that have been fasting for quite some time. We got some cold fronts early and hasn't been the same since. I have some that haven't eaten in 2 months.
