Best thing you can do with this species is cool them down for a few months and forget about them. Think of it as an extended incubation period.



After a cool down they will come out eating like champs in the spring.



I have had stubbron feeders that I cooled like this while their siblings ate all winter. What happened is the cooled snakes actually surpass those in growth that ate all winter. That is because the winter cooling makes them eat more frequently and more ravonously.



Be patient! This hobby requires it!
