    Re: Adult male won't eat

    Sorry your BP is being so stubborn. Sometimes there's no rhyme or reason for their feeding breaks. In some places it's getting colder and it's breeding season for lots of species so many snakes are going off food. It is concerning that he hasn't eaten since April but if he's pooping then he still has reserves. Your temps are in range and you say the snake isn't sick so you may just have to let nature take it's course. I had a BP that went a full year without food and he was just fine. I'd keep offering food once a month until he decides to eat again but I wouldn't assist/force feed a snake that was previously eating. I hope he gets on track soon.
