    New snakes added to collection, established snakes not eating?

    So I recently added two new BP's to the collection. Yes, they are on the other side of the house in quaranteen. Just wondering if my two established ones will possibly go off food? The last time I added a new male in August 2021, my female that I have had for some time, went of food for three months.

    Oh btw, the two new ones are male and female.

    Thanks for all suggestions.

    I've never had the arrival of a new snake interfere with any of my other snakes eating.

    It's definitely a snake conspiracy! (joking!) More like a silly coincidence- or maybe in the past your new snakes took much of your attention & you just missed some of the signs that your "regulars" were ready to eat, until it was too late? I've added plenty of snakes to my house over the years, & I've never observed any such phenomenon.

    “Ditto”. Enough said right there.
