    Re: At a loss over my snake's eating habits!

    Mine did the same thing a couple years ago once he hit 5years old. Went on a 7 month fast and then started taking large mice, then two mice, and then rats again. Did the same thing this year again but got him eating after 5 months, refused a few weeks, ate again, refused, ate. Just be patient and it will come around. Mine just refused the last two feedings in a row and then slammed a medium rat last night. Picky little guy but he's in great shape and never lost too much weight during his hunger strikes. Did get a tad on the slim side but he's packed on a couple hundred grams in the last few months. Super annoying and stressful at times but it will eat when it wants to! Hang in there!
