    Eating and weather

    Has anyone noticed a link between storms and the refusal to eat? Normally when a thunderstorm comes in, all mine are that much more eager to eat. This time with the big snow storm, I had 7 snakes refuse to eat. Not normal at all! If I have any refuse, it is 2 at most.
    Anyone else notice this?

    most of my snakes wont eat at all for our cold fronts, but when it's a warmer day and raining i get nervous sticking my hand in the tubs.

    Maybe they are sensitive to the changing atmospheric pressures? Some people with arthritis or rheumatism swear they can tell when a storm is rolling in because of the aching in their bones and joints.
