Re: Another "snake won't eat" question
Kyle, you should have heard what I called my darling pet after she peed/pooped all over my new sofa! Assist feeding for 4 months? That sounds incredibly stressful for both of you! I'll definitely come back to you for tips if it ever gets to the point where we assist feed. (Which is a loooooong ways off yet.)

Ya its Terrible, I took the little guy in as a rescue and was only 43 grams ribs and everything. I didn't think he had eaten since he had hatched.

Re: Another "snake won't eat" question
1300 grams and going off food at this time of year? My diagnosis, breeding season/1000 gram wall. Almost every single one of mine have gone through it. Usually about a 3-4 month break. Don't worry and just offer her usual food, which should be small rats at that size, every other week or every week if you really want to. Went they want to go back on food they will. I just did the happy dance this week. My 1300g Lesser Female hasn't eaten in 5 months. Took her first rat on Tuesday.
No fears.
