Why. Wont. You. Eat???
My female ball python Madison and male ball python CleoMantra WON'T EAT and haven't for about a month now.
Neither of them look emaciated or anything, but I do see a bit of loose skin on them, more than I'd like to see. Nothing alarming, in my opinion, though.
They've both gone of feed before, but it still worries me. My husbandry seems to be ok--I'm trying to best I can in this drafty apartment to keep temps up, with lots of lamps and whatnot, as this apartment is positively FREEZING.
Madison weighed about 800-900 grams a few months ago, and Mantra weighed about 1300 at the same time.
Should I be worried that it's been almost a month?
And why won't the two of them eat when my other male ball python Nergal is right next to them, with the same husbandry conditions, and he eats every week like a piggie (and go figure, he's about 1500 grams and doesn't need to gain more weight, lol)?
Arghhh! I'm at a loss, again. My babies are on a feeding strike and I hate it
