I will have to respectfully disagree with NERD. Our spider went off feed and just got back on a couple months ago, she went through a 4 month fast. and she is got to be one of the most shy ball pythons we have.
to each snake its own
+1 My Bee was a FANTASTIC eater...up to 600 grams...then he went on a 6 month fast... He was also the most shy of my BPs...very sweet, but wasn't keen on being anywhere but in his hide (even had to put his f/t rats IN his hide on feeding days)!
