    Snake of feed.

    So I'm need of some advice jazz my BP has been off feed for about 5 weeks max now. It was after her last shed that jazz quit eating, she doesn't look too be losing weight. Now off tried moving her onto rats no dice. Then today I scented a rat with a mouse nothing still, I even tried the mouse I used still nothing. I think I'll ask my local vet for him to take a look at her (he has a 16` rtb naked ruby) and give advice. Is it Bp breeding season or what any advice is helpful sorry about the paragraph to read.

    5 weeks isn't long and is very normal. I've had ball pythons go off feed for 8 months with no adverse effects.
