: i have a late 01 female honduran that stopped feeding out the blue, she has not been cooled and is kept by herself, she ate for me about a month ago and hasnt feed since. she hasnt lost any weight. i dont know what to do how do i get her to eat again??


Being off feed for a month is not something to be overly concerned about, as long as she seems healthy in every other way. Snakes do this from time to time. Keep offering her food once a week. If you've been feeding frozen you might try a live stunned mouse. Also check your temps. If this goes on for another month it might be time for the Vet. (sooner if she shows signs of illness).
