    About three months, drove me nuts. He generally likes to strike for about two months at a time.

    Re: Longest period of time your BP has fasted.
    Both of my female normals who are a year apart in age took 9 months each. They were both aggressive malnourished petstore hatchlings when I got them. Theyre both sweethearts now, and both snakes wouldnt eat until I pushed the mouses nose into their mouth slightly. At that point they struck coiled and have been the most aggressive eaters i have(save the burm) since

    My 4 WC girls stopped eating the beginning of October. They finally took their first meals at the end of May.

    I have an albino make that goes off food for a good chunk of the year. This time around it was 8 months. Finally caved and offered him live, and he took it in a matter of minutes. After that he's been eating F/T without problems. Not looking forward to him going off again around November.

    I had a male That went on a year long fast. He barely lost any weight so I wasn't worried. The day he decided to eat again he almost snapped me in the face. I opened his tub to clean it and he came flying out ready to roll. I grabbed a rat and he sucked it up within minutes.

    had a male who chose to fast for 15 months. . . offered food weekly, live and F/t, Mouse and Rat, large and small. Did all the tricks at about 9 months, and still nothing. I stopped trying to feed him weekly, and went to a monthly schedule, 15 months in he finally started hunting around the cage very actively, I put in a f/t rat and he hasn't refused food since (over 2 years ago)
