They can go off for a while. Best thing to do is to keep offering food. If they're eating the same size prey item, offer it to the girl first. That way if she refuses, it can be offered to the male after. Just keep an eye out to make sure she's not losing weight.

Re: Part of my collection and question
Can happen that a young bp will go off feed. Mostly it's husbandry related. Are your snakes in the same enclosure? If they are they should be separated. The other thing that comes to mind in non feeding reptiles is the substrate first then adequate hides. Lastly, what type of prey are you offering them?

Re: Part of my collection and question
They are in different enclosures. The substrate is coco bark...has been since they have been in my possession. Don't know if that is good or bad, but it is the same from when she ate her first 2 meals. She uses both of her hides and seems to be comfortable in them. I am feeding her f/t rat pups. She is only 179g she was 165g when I got her 2 months ago, so she isn't loosing weight just refusing for the last month.
