Hi,



I've had a CB -09 hognose for six months now. He has been eating well and a lot. The past three meals he has had were rat pinkies and he ate without problems.



Since the last shed he has eaten once. Now it has been four weeks since he ate and he's still refusing food!

He doesn't look skinny, but he has seemingly lost weight.



Should I wait, should I raise temperatures, or should I put him to brumation? He is very active and doesn't seem to be sick nor stressed. (his activity actually concerns me too, normally he's not that active...)
