    Frustrating Feeding
    Hey there, It's been a while since I posted here about anything! Anyways, my two snakes haven't really eaten for a few weeks. The weeks before that they weren't eating either. Last time either of my snakes ate regularly (they are offered prey every week at the same time, the same way, I don't change it up on them so they don't get stressed) was lets say early October or mid September.

    Neither of them are showing signs of starvation or losing weight. Should I just let them be for a few weeks and just skip the feeding for now and give them some time for a few weeks?

    How old are they? Did you weigh them to see if they were losing a lot of weight? Bp's just stop eating sometimes. You may want to check temps to make sure nothing has changed there. Just don't change a whole bunch of things at the same time. Then you will never know what it was that caused the problem to begin with.

    I woudl recommend that you weigh them often (at least once a month). Sometimes Bp's stop eating but lose ver little weight.

    I weighed them and actually they just ate last night, It was just one of those times for them I suppose. Thank you for the comment, they are the just about the same weight as they usually are so all my woes just went out the window!
