Hey guys, so I’ve got a question for you experts that taught me so much when I first got my snake. About 2 months ago I began to keep mice in a plastic tub near my snakes cage, since that time my snake has refused to eat. I’ve tried killing them for her, and leaving them live and just watching closely. I’ve tried moving the mouse cage to another room. All to know avail. She is starting to lose weight and I’m beginning to get nervous, she has lost almost 60 grams in the last 2 months and is down to 647 from 707 shortly before this fast. Other than the introduction of a mouse cage near hers there has been no change in husbandry. Her temps are perfect, 79 to 81 for cold, 92 to 94 on warm, with a 65% humidity (from the accu what ever its called weather station from H.D.). I’ve recently taken to killing the mice for her and doing the dead mouse dance, but she won’t touch live or dead anymore. She’s a just over a year old and was a perfect eater before this. She has never had a bad shed and I’ve examined her eyes closely and can’t see any eye caps that might be impairing her vision, she’s also not in shed atm, she’s not showing any of the signs of an RI and nor mites and the ilk or any other disease …. The strange thing is, I drop the mouse in the cage and watch (or dance it around in her cage for dead ones) and she will come out and look at it then slither around her cage for about half an hour to an hour and then go back to her hide. One time she slithered right up against the LIVE mouse and had a drink while it was sitting there crapping on her cage floor.

Any suggestions or comments?
