Mykee, I'm with you on this. I've got a 16 year old pair that will eat day or night. A new snake, or young one, may be easier to feed at night, but in the long run I think they adjust to YOUR schedule.

Ballfreak, have you tried the sack method? Sometimes a difficult feeder will eat if it's put in a paper bag, or snake sack for that matter, with the prey item and left overnight. secure the opening so it can't get out. Use F/T or prekilled, not live.

Also, as everyone else has said, it the nature of the beast. They're known for going on yearly fasts during breeding season wich can last a variable amount of months, and sometimes just choose not to eat at odd times. As long as it's not loosing a significent amount of weight try not to stress yourself over it. In time you'll get used to it .
