Yearling Western hasn't eaten since early October
Hello, my female yearling Western Hoggie has not eaten since about early October and I'm beginning to worry that she'll starve. Any thoughts?

I wouldn't be too worried although I have no experience with Hoggies - breeding season or something. ??
A while back , I had a 2 years old Royal / Ball python that went NINE months without eating a thing and was perfectly fine , then started eating and never stopped ...

I️ think hoggies go into brumation this time of year in the wild. It’s been less than a month, I️ assure you he will not starve Snakes can go incredibly long periods without food.

What is the size and age and how do you keep it, temps, substrate etc?
While they do brumate as mentioned previously if nothing has changed in their husbandry hognose will eat throughout the winter, and female rarely stop eating they are garbage disposal.
Are you also sure it is a female?
