>>>>I know this is probably a dumb question, but is anyone else having problems with their ballies not eating this winter? I have a 4year old male who isnt eating and although i know they can go a long time without food, i am a worrier. its been close to 3 months now. He did attempt to take a medium rat about a month ago, but it was a largeish meal and he backed up off of it and went back to sleep. Ive tried mice, rats, pinks, frozen, live, blah blah. Hit hot spot is near 90-95 and the ambient is close to 80, he is fairly dry in there too. Should i just leave him alone and let him be for a while, or should i keep trying? is that too stressful? dear god, im such a worrier. But, you know, thats a mom for you. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Mine has been off feed since Sept. I know exactly how you feel and have seeked reassurance multiple times. I just keep telling myself to hang in there.
Also, I try to feed about every 2-3 weeks, which is what I've been advised to do instead of wasing a rodent every week. ----- Rob Talkington
