Re: Quit Eating
I concur that it's not bad is a snake passes dinner, as long as he seems ok and he behaves normal as he used to do.
There can indeed be tons of reasons, so the more details, the more can be ruled out. It's interesting to know if it's a juvenile/adult, how often and much do you give him, what did you all tried to give him to him these past weeks and at what ratio, is it a female/male, did you change the enclosure... but still they can just stop for no obvious reason.
There are some tricks to get them started again. For example you can try a variety of food items every 3 days, don't let the food to long in the enclosure so the food is not constantly smelled. Earthworms are most of the time appreciated. Put some live fish ( no goldfish ) in a dish with a very small amount of water, so the fish will splash. The movement of the fish normally attracts the snakes a lot.
