Hello. I just wanted tell you that this seems to be typical colubrid behavior in my experiences. Some seem to go off feed and some continue to eat all year.Personally I have noticed this more if the snake was hatched late in the year towards fall. I have seen this in Pits, Kings, and rat snakes. As stated in one of your other replies, I would turn the heat down and not worry about offering any meals for awhile. Give him a hide, if he doesn't have one already. The cooler temps should slow him down so he won't lose much weight. Rich
