Last time I checked he was about 650g. Is that a good weight? 3 years is a rough rough approximation. I got him in july a few years back. He isn't underweight, he looks nice and plump.Originally Posted by dr del
Hi,
If he is three years old then he should really be eating more food than a mouse - even a retired breeder mouse.
So I vote he is still hungry.
If you can find one get a small rat (40-60g ) and try him with that next time to see if he will eat it.
Do you feed live or F/t?
Is there any chance that, after being tagged, your sister used the same mitten to feed him?
I ask because you say he constricted it which to me means he was in feeding mode rather than defense or agressive mode.

I feel f/t, but he used to feed on live.
I used to feed him two mice every 7 days, but it seemed to be too much. By the next feeding day, he'd only eat one.
Okay. Now I'm confused. I just went back into his tank, and he's acting like nothing happened. :/ False alarm, I guess. My snake might just be bipolar.
edit: Nah. We just dangle the mouse by the tail for feeding.
doubledeeedit: He weighs closer to 700 gm
