Re: not eating
Its breeding time! They go off feed during winter! Check to make sure your husbandry is correct and wait it out!

Yep, its normal for that to happen. It wont hurt the snake for it go off feeding for a few months, as long as they aren't loosing too much weight.

Re: not eating
My 2 1/2 year old BP is approaching her 5th month with not eating - amazingly though, she has not lost any weight.
It still worryies me but I don't know of anything else to do for her.
Each week I hope and pray she will eat but nothing yet.

Re: not eating
As long as all of your husbandry is spot on (read the caresheet about "why my snake won't eat). Then don't worry about it. As long as the snake is not loosing weight, it will be fine.
