2 year old eating issues

i have a bp that is just barely 2 years old. he is about 38 inches long and 2 inches wide. i have had him for a year. when i got him he was eating 2 adult mice a week. i still fed him 2-3 adult mice a week after that. then he just stopped! he waited 6 weeks then ate 1 mouse then waited 5 weeks then waited 8 weeks.... he still sheds in the normal time frame but its been 2 weeks this time and im not sure if i should be concerned.

any ideas?

Sounds like you own a ball python lol

They can go over a year without eating, so I wouldn't lose sleep over this.

Just make sure that he has an 88-92 degree hot side, 78-82 degree cool side 40%-60% humidity, and at least 2 good hides. I would also suggest that you don't handle him until he starts eating consistently again.

i make sure his tempurature and humidity are consistant on a daily basis. and he has good hides.

what problems could i have from handling him when he is not eating consistantly

Stress. No matter how nice we are to BP's some BP's will get stressed out from handeling (what if something 4 times your size picked you up?)

Basically you want your BP to be as stress free as possible, because stress = not eating. It isn't the only cause, but it is the most common.

ok thank you
