One of my male's last meal was two weeks before I brumated him back in November. He has still been refusuing food. He has shrunk considerably. When can I expect him to start eating again? 5 months just seems like a crazy long time to not eat. If mating season does not end until may, he may not eat for 7 months. I offer food all the time, even keep him in a container over night with it. He is not deathly skinny, or anything, but what is the max time until I should start to worry and maybe even force feed? I will try the feeding tricks that I use for hatchling before force feeding, of course. I just want to know if 5 months or more is normal. My other male that is still refusing food did not start brumation until late december and he is still looking good.
