I have 1.0 male het for pied and 0.3 female het pied. 2 of them ate for awhile but then stopped. It has now been about 6 weeks. I breed and feed them rat pups. Should I try mice (I am hesitant about giving them mice because I don't want to have to buy them all the time)? Any advice.

1.0 het for pied ball
0.3 het for pied balls
1.0 albino boa 5'
0.1 albino boa 50% het snow 4'
1.0 hypo 50% poss het albino boa
1.0 100% het albino 50% het snow boa 6'
0.3 hypo 50% het albino boas all 6' (1 gravid)
0.1 100% het albino 8' (also gravid. 3rd year in a row)

i have the same exact problem with a few of my snakes...including my het pieds lol ... for about the same amount of time actually. Winter fasting? I've noticed my rat eaters arent as hungry as my mouse eaters becuase rats are bigger meals and seem to take longer to digest. I talked to ralph davis about this a little and he told me not to stress out over it and to be patient not to worry unless they really start to slim down. They usually come out of it. My het pied girl dropped from 14xx grams to 1280 or so he said not to worry for a girl that size thats a nice healthy sh!t lol
