    Good advice from Mike there :gj:

    As far as the other's not having this problem...maybe they are "ballsy" (pun intended) and the Mojo is a wuss :)
    Some snakes just like a little more privacy than others...

    Nope, not strange at all. They're all different and have their own personalities. You'll learn your snakes quirks, its just part of the game lol.

    Well yesterday was feeding day and again my mojave didnt eat. I left his food in there overnight and he didnt eat. Is it normal for a snake that size to go off feed? He hasnt ate for me yet. He ate for the breeder on january 8th and is currently at 105 grams.

    You've had the snake a month, so call whoever you got it from and ask what they were feeding it.
    It could be as simple as scenting your preferred food offering with what the new guy is familiar with.
    Also, if using F/T or pre-killed try a late evening feed and if he doesn't hit the warmed food leave it and him alone in the darkened room for 30-60 minutes. Curiosity got my ghost started on his food and not he hits like a hammer on feeding day.

    I emailed the breeder this morning. Still waiting for a response. I am feeding live. I got a spider from the same breeder the same day and he has ate every time ive offered.
