    Pythons and hunger strike

    Is it only Ball Pythons that go on hunger strike for months or there are other Pythons that do that as well? Did anyone experience that with Pythons other than Ball?

    Re: Pythons and hunger strike

    My carpets, Liasis, and blood python are all consistent feeders, not counting refusals when they're in shed, but my male sand boas will do it (male sand boas often do during breeding season), and my husband's cornsnake will not only go off feed, she'll hide the un-eaten mice. 🤢
