    Re: Never really have had this happen.

    She might have had a sudden change in appetite, I have a male that every year catches me of guard with his food prefrence, normally he eats anything I put at him but for the longest I had been sticking to rats, but recently he seemed to go off feed for a month and some,
    I would find him always nudging his tub and moving around acting like he's hungry It finally dawned on me to try mice on him instead of rats and lo and behold he's back on mice again. took 3 ft in one feeding. Seems he just wanted a little variety in his food maybe.

    Re: Never really have had this happen.

    Thanks guys for all your answers... No she has never been bred she only pushing about 400g and with the husbandry I had the rack in a basement which was very cold down there but they still ate really well... Then I moved into my own place and the HUSBANDRY IS ACTUALLY BETTER the room stays at a ambient temp around 72 so everything is actually better so I dont understand. Like you said J_H_Smith I prolly never will know lol.

    Hi,

    Just to note - when you change things for the better you are still changing them which can make some snakes freak out a little and need the settling in period again.

    Yea I was kinda thinking that so I waited a good week before I messed with them and when i first settled them in a week after all three of my snakes ate that following week is when she then went off feeding... Its just frustrating because there arnt many animals out there that just all of sudden stop eating because of no reason well maybe there is but i dont know any lol
