? about feeding

My Ball hasnt ate in about 3 1/2 weeks. I talked to a local snake guy that said with it getting alot colder here. that i might take a few weeks off. Usually the guys is right but this is my 9yr olds snake and she LOVES this thing and i cant have anything happen to him. Also want to throw in here that we moved also and i no that could have sumthin to do with it. BUT i need to no what every1 here thanks

some specific info on your set up and temps would be helpful, answer the following questions :)

how old is the snake
when did you acquire it
is it male or female
what is it eating
how often is it fed
what are the EXACT temps in your cage
what are you using to measure the temps in the cage
what is the exact humidity
what are you using to measure the humidity
when did you move
did you change anything in the set up

etc

the answers to some of those questions will help people here figure out whats going on.

Id have a quick search around this site for some old posts on feeding problems as there are many floating around and are very useful, i belive there might be a sticky in the Ball python section.

Ball pythons go off food for a veriaty of reasons and 3 1/2 weeks is nothing by there standards. Yes a male who is ready to breed will go off food during the colder periods as his mind switches into breeding mode.

Usually when i have had a Ball suddenly go off feed i check my setup and note if any temps have changed, humidity , have i removed any hides, moved the viv (high traffic area )etc as there are so many different reasons why they dont feed. In my experience if its not a breeding fast its a security fast. Is he been held alot recently?

As the other two guys have mentioned in order to properly make a guess as to why he has stopped feeding we need to know your exact setup details.

3 1/2 weeks is nothing to worry about at all. Keep an eye on his condition and maybe keep note of his weight and as long as his health seems ok i wouldnt panic too much, just double check your set up and search the forum... hundreds of people will have searched this forum looking for the same answer. I did 6 years ago when i had a royal not feed at all for 10 months and only ate if i force fed her for another 6 months after that. Shes now in the smallest container i could find with plenty of hides and is soon to be a breeder this season.
