They stopped eating with the cold, wet weather

I expected them to slow down some with cooler weather, but they all suddenly stopped eating at the same time. :( How do they know it's cold and raining outside anyway? The temps and humidity are the same as always in their cages.

Air pressure changes.

Ah, that explains it! :) I guess I'll thaw another rat in a few days. Hopefully one of them will take it so I don't have to throw it away.

Barometric pressure can have an effect on eating and breeding so I usually prey for some sort of storm when I'm about to pair up.

I havent tried feeding my snake yet since the cold weather has come in..

I have only fed her once and that was almost a week ago. Should I wait a few extra days to make sure shes extra hungry or should I just try and feed her on my regular schedule (on Sundays)

Do all snakes react to weather/climate change?

If I'm not pairing ill feed the same schedule for a while. If they show no interest at all for a while ill move to a ten day schedule
