ive had my stimmie for bout 2 months now... so yeh i got him around 4 months and hes now going on 7 months id guess... up until now he has beenn a great feeder eating 2 pinkie mice every 7-10 days... but as of like 2 weeks ago he didnt eat them one time, so i figured id let him wait another week to see if he got hungry, yet again no responce. i read sumwhere that they can go for a while without food so just wait. and thats wat i did, i tried feeding again today yet to no prevail, i heated the mice up ina bag dipped in warm water like ive been told yet he ignores them. he hasnt eaten in a month now and im worried...


any ideas?
 
Nothing to worry about the can go for a prolonged period with out food read the Wiki though it has some info in there that might help you out.
 
Ranga - Absolutely no concern at this stage - stick to the regime you are currently with. Keeping trying to feed him on his usual feed days. I had a snake not feed for 10 months (he was sick during that time mind you) before he showed any sign of condition loss...

Of course, check his temperatures and the like to make sure no husbandry issues have arisen to cause him to go off his food. None of my snakes have fed over the last few months at all and are only just starting to show some interest again - don't stress...
