    BP won’t eat after shed

He’s normally a pretty good eater and his husbandry is the same as it’s always been(I’ve had him for a year in March).
    You answered your own question when you said you know its normal for Balls to fast. Its also a Male & Winter so even more so.. What your feeding leads me to believe thats whats going on. Fewer feeding of a appropriate size will possibly keep steady feed schedule and thats still not a guarantee. I know i read you had him for a year but how old is he if your feeding that big of a Rat which is a Adult meal (3/4/5 years old)? Most adult balls would only take a Med at most. These are small Pythons not large ones and it in fact makes them go off feed for months.
    ( just read in another reply he is a Foot Long?? Theres no way. Most Hatchling are a foot in length and they certainly dont eat Med Rats.)
    Where do people get there Care info!!!!!
