She's not a beast anymore!!!

She's a late 08 ever since feb.2010 when she hit 945 close to a 1000 grams she just has not been eating the same. I still try to feed her every week once a week. Ive got her up to 1200 almost but she skips a month or two at times. Is this normal? Is she ever going to eat like she use to?

ya my girl is doin the same thing. she was eating everything and when she got to 945 she just stopped. doesnt even show interest anymore. now shes down to 845 so i hope she eats again soon.

Would trying different foods help getting them to eat again? Maybe mice instead of rats?

ive done everything except live, and i really dont want to go back to that. she will eat when shes ready, she still healthy

Someone told your snakes that there is "a 1000 gram wall" that they have to climb over, and they said no :P

Why not live if she will eat it on a regular basis?

its just more convenient to feed frozen, and i dont want to risk her getting hurt from feeding live

I feed live all the time. As do many breeders. Snakes naturally eat live and wont get hurt under your proper provision. But whatever works for ya.

small ASF is how I got her to eat, I scented a small rat and she ate that as well a week ago. This week no luck. I just dont know if she will ever get back on track.
