Jonah....I think that's one of the hardest adjustments I had to make when first taking on a snake as a pet. They just don't eat like we do...or any of our typical four- or two-legged friends. It was hard to wait a week between meals. It felt like I was starving him! And if he had to go for longer than a week...oh my goodness! We get so anxious!

Now he's getting over a three MONTH fast...and he's not even a fat bp...he's a slender little gopher. You wouldn't think they would have the reserves go through something like that...but he did...and by his own choice.

Trust me, your snake can easily (and even comfortably!) survive for weeks, or even months, without eating. You'll have plenty of time to "troubleshoot" and figure out what he prefers to eat. Icc won't starve to death...I promise you!!
