just posting to find out if anyone is having the same winter festing. Both my normal and my albino burms went off feeding for about 2 months now. Anyone else having the same scenario?

Pretty common in the winter months. Interestingly, one of mine turned off in the summer, and turned back on now.
I really think the a/c in the house screwed that one up.
Just keep an eye on the weight. Don't want to see them losing too much.
In spring, they'll make up for lost eating.
Also...make sure husbandry is ok, and if this snake is one that never turned off before, maybe a fecal exam for parasites is in order?

Mine went about a month and a half. Now she is back to normal.

My male (little over a year old) did the same thing starting about a month and a half ago. He has only eaten one large rat in the last month and a half. I keep trying every week, but it is getting frustrating throwing away this many rats and rabbits!
