    Re: F/T Feeding (Wrapping but not eating)

    Yeah, I've had a few snakes "kill" their dead mice and then not eat them this month. Sometimes I can retrieve the mouse, dry it off and warm its nose, and the snake will eat it the 2nd time I offer it; sometimes they just aren't interested after all. But these are animals that have been fasting off and on all winter, so I'm counting any interest as a victory.

    I'm just glad nobody's wasted any of my live mice by killing them and not eating them.

    (Basically, I think it's seasonal. I suggest switching him to an every-other-week feeding schedule until his appetite picks up again.)
