Snake kinda off feed??

luckiefool420 Feb 28, 2004 11:25 AM

i know it's normal for them to go off for long periods of time but my snake is kinda off feed and kinda on. Since Decemeber she has been only eating a mouse about every other week. it is pretty annoying going out buying her mice, she onlt eats one or two or none. Has any one else had a snake do this?

All three of mine have been doing this since december. They went from eating 1 mouse every week to eating every other or even 2 weeks between. I ended up buying a small kritter keeper and rodent water bottle and only bought 1 or 2 mice in a week and just kept them until they were eaten always offering though every week. Mine also unfortunately only take live so that is a stinky problem too, I hate mouse smell!!!!
