not feeding....

I have a bp that has not fed for 3 Weeks now. I offered a mice earlier and she struck but never coiled or anything leaving ghte mice wounded but still moblie in every way... Should I be concerned? I do not think its the environment since all my other bp's are feeding, and I do not think that I am offering her a prey that is too big, so im not sure if she is just fasting.

Thank you in advance for the output.

Depending on the age, 3 weeks is no big deal. She will eat when she is ready!

what is your husbandry?

Temps
Humidity etc..
can you take pictures of the snake and the cage its kept in?

would help us to help you :)

I have all my snakes in a sterilite tubs which are all kept in a racks (RhinoRaXX), Im not at home at the moment so I will not be able to provide any pics.

Thermostat is set at 92 degrees, constant inside tub temp is 89 degrees on hot spot and 82 on the other end of the tub.

Humidity is 60% and I swap to a bigger water bowl is snake is in shed to bump up humidity level.

She may just be a finicky eater as all of my other snakes feed with no problems at all.
I will keep trying to drop in food every feeding schedule. I will try to feed her at night next time see if that helps.

Thank you

when my snakes wouldn't eat i fed them in the dark and it seemed to work
