    So, feeding Axel Question.
    I wanted to ask, should I try to feed Axel? Yes, I know Today IS Axels Feeding day, it's been 6 day since the last time I tried.
    Someone said leave him alone for 2 weeks, I did not understand if they were talking about not feeding him.
    But anyways thank you and that's all for now! :)

    I'd go ahead and at least offer food. If he doesn't eat leave him completely alone until the next scheduled feeding day. Remember to do your food presentation. Defrost near his enclosure, warm the rodent, offer head first.

    uhhh i think that might have had to do with all the changes to your enclosure, and ensuring he was properly settled in before adding the stress of a feed.

    i honestly can't remember lol. have you noticed signs of hunger? a snoot poking out at night?

    No luck, he was in his hide when I tried to feed him, so, I guess he was just active to see what was going on.

    Okay, sounds good, I guess. xD
    Thank you! I will definitely try again next Tuesday, maybe he will actually eat and get use to the new stuff.

    you only see him roaming at night, yes? just want to clarify.

    he'll settle soon; some snakes adjust to change better than others. and you gave him a lot of changes!!!

    Sucks that he didn't eat but your tank seems spot on, being a juvie he probably needs more time to acclimate. Unless he deficates leave him alone until next week.
