>>Hi I am partialy new to the snake seen and I have a situation that I feel needs attention. I have a jungle pastel male and this will be his first breeding season, he is active,sperm plugging, and showing alot of interest in females. Although he has not eatin in over a month, I was told not to worry, if they do not eat, unless they lose weight unfortunately my scale took a crap, and I am purchasing one asap. But I can tell by looking at him that he has lost weight. What do I do??? Do I go ahead and force feed him??? Help Please thanks - Matt



If he is in the same room as the females,then he may have to be relocated...You know the old saying.Out of sight,out of mind. (In this case it isn't sight exactly,but rather..smell)
