    `slow moving corn, not hibernation

    my colubrids are kept from 77-85, the reptitemp keeps them in between, so i go to handle my corn today and he is slow, instead of his usuall spunkieness. he eats a 2 adult mice every week, was on a 1 mous a week, plain but he started loosing weight, almost shrinking, so is he in hibrnation or just calm, i figured with those temp that high, it couldn't be hibernation

    So he's losing weight? I would try keeping temps about 82F-86F, that may make him spark up a bit. But if he's starting to get lethargic and losing weight he could have parasites from eating a rodent with them (if you feed live or pre-killed). Is it feces as normal as always?
