Kingsnake not eating.

[wilomn]

Wes - does size matter for younger kingsnakes? I know that I start all of my kings and milks (woo - a grand total of 8) in six quart tubs and haven't experienced any true fasts.

Could that also be a symptom of his problems, the size of the current enclosure?

Not in my experience. I've kept them in deli cups and cages up to about 20 gal. and 95% eat no problem. There's always a few that a problems and some that just go off feed for a while. My little spotted guy went about 4 months over the winter without eating even though he was kept on heat, or had it available, the whole time.

They're robust little guys. He may be entering a shed cycle if he's been eating a lot or he may just have the urge to wander.

Pics would help.
