Hasn't eaten since January

[NYDragon]

In my opinion based on my experience and the experience of a bunch of other hognose breeders, this is a bit on the cool side...

I would bump the hot spot up to about 92 degrees and have the cool side/ambient air temps between 78 and 80 degrees...

Hogs do like it much warmer than other North American colubrid species... In other words, they should not be kept like corn snakes...

It is not normal for males or females to go off feed at any time of the year other than brumation and breeding... All of my males feed year round... I attribute this to the fact they are kept with high basking temps and ambients up to 80 degrees..

Yeah, I wasn't sure if the temps were right or not. There is so much conflicting info out there. I'm having a hard time getting the ambient temps up. Good ole NY weather. I have foam board on three sides and 3/4 of the top covered but still staying around 70 degrees.

I tried feeding him last Monday and he refused but still looked good. I left him alone until yesterday. I took him out and he looked thinner than last week and a little wrinkly. I put him in some lukewarm water and he drank for about 30 secs. Weird since he had a full water dish in his cage. I tried offering him food again but no luck. I did notice a little black mite though. First time I've seen that. So off to the vet today. I'm just not sure what is going on with him. He's making me a nervous wreck!
