Ok 3.5 month old ball....been a great eater every 5 days with about 15% of body weight eaten via live mouse.....he just shed...everything else in the tank is perfect....temp and humidity...has been for over a week.....now he wont eat...its been about 10 day ssince his last feeding....
didnt have any shed issues...I know skipping a meal typically isnt an issue with snakes...but just wondering if there are any helpful tips for live mouse eaters?
His last meal might have been a bit on the stressful side...as I provided a second mouse that decided to climb all over him and he decided he didnt want a 2nd one...so after about 5 minutes of the 2nd mouse being in there I took it out.
Just tried to feed him on the 10 day mark and he wont touch the mouse and seems scared (?) of it....so I took it out of the tank.
I've always fed him during the day...would trying at night maybe work better?
any tips are appreciated..
How big is his tank. Most feeding issues are husbandry related, so you want to go through all that first.
