Another snake off feed.
Cleo won't eat! I offer her a f/t rat and she runs from it. But she just shed and pooped and keeps roaming around with that look. Eden ate yesterday and is very active. Thoughts?

Depending on how much your feeding him, and with what frequency. Maybe he's just not hungry. Not to mention the variables of his husbandry. I guess if you explained more, it would be easier to access your situation.

She's eating a small rat every 10 days and has been a great feeder until recently. I have her in a 36x18x18 terrarium with lots of varied hiding spots and ecoearth. Temp reads between 85 and 90

Hey, reassess your husbandry, primary and secondary surveys to eliminate variables. Is this a new animal to you? Has this animal recently been bred? Switch from ecoearth to cypress mulch! There is a lot in the literature to support the use of cypress mulch in problem feeding bps. If she is taking some food that is always better than a complete refusal. I really don't think she should be classified as " off feed" after just one or two changes in the amount of prey he or she wants to consume. Be patient and you probably will get surprised. Enjoy. Stay in peace and not pieces. A.C.
