I don't know if the wild ones eat while under ground. Mine don't act interested and don't move very much. I just check the water every couple of weeks and don't disturb them. Sometimes the temp may drop to a 67-68 but that is rare. 70 seems to be the stable. They don't shed or hunt and I just leave them alone, they may raise their head and look at me but don't usually come out of the coil. Now I let them sit this year from the end of Oct. cleaning out and started getting them down towards mid Nov, I didn't bring them up till it warmed here which was beginning of April. The interesting thing was I thought I may have waited to long and I started noticing the wild snakes crossing the road and then mine started breeding, so i guess they were intune to nature more so than I was.
