Hey y'all

I have a three year old female that has been acting strange. She has become extremely active at night and hasn't ate a single rodent in a month. In fact last week I left a live rat pup but she killed it and left it. I have also tried leaving a dead rodent over night and tong feeding her. She shows no interest in eating. I read other forums and it seems that she shows signs of wanting to mate.

Her temps (90 degrees in her basking area) are fine and I mist her twice a day. I havent had any complaints with her in the past three years besides her recent hunger strike. How long should I wait before I take her to a vet?

Thanks in advance.

One month is not a long time for a snake to go without eating. As long as she is active and has good body weight don't worry. Many snakes, mostly males but some females, will stop eating during breeding season.
