Not eating

[Bogertophis]

...Just if you have a dustbin snake like a King or Boa or Corn snake then at least you aren’t wasting a mouse / rat each attempt

Kings, boas, corns & others all deserve better than that! Such extra meals just makes them overweight & unhealthy, which shortens their lifespan, making them prone to health issues. Just saying.

Also, "re-offering" prey items is ONLY acceptable* IF you've had all your snakes for a long time & KNOW for sure they're all healthy. Otherwise you're transferring germs from one to another via prey. *Actually, it's always a risk, since it's impossible to know what pathogens your snake is harboring just by looking at them.

And you cannot say for sure that this BP is healthy- if you thought everything was "normal" you wouldn't be so concerned about his lack of appetite. So please do NOT re-offer prey items that are refused by this snake- it's a bad habit & asking for trouble. That's how people's collections can get wiped out. Or at the very least, vet care for many becomes very hard on your budget.
