They can go quite some time between meals, especially this time of year. The posts suggesting that your snake is already gearing up for hibernation are correct. This time of year, a snake from your area would NOT want to eat as it needs to empty out its system so as not to wind up with undigested food in its belly during brumation. Cool it for at least a few weeks. Darkness would be good also. Hopefully it will come out of hibernation hungry. I fed mine bait store minnows when they were little and now they eat pinks. Their mom was wild-caught and they still tend to go long periods between meals this time of year. If they go more than a couple of months without eating, I put them in the basement for a few weeks.
