I have a very healthy California King that's about 4-5 years old. It is over 5 ft. and looks good. Always makes me nervous when it goes October to April without eating, sometimes longer. When it eats in the summer it eats really good.



Is this normal? If I see him active I will sometimes put food in, but during those months he won't touch it.



Also, what temps do you recommend during the year and then also winter when he's not eating.



thank you,
