Newbie feeding question

[ClintN]

I inherited my daughter's carpet python when she left our home in Brisbane.

I am not sure about giving him his first feed for spring 5 October. There's currently no heater & the carpet python is pretty active.

However, his body & eyes are looking dull, I think he's in for a shed. Normally he shed's after eating & resting.

Should I hold off his first feed after winter until he has shed? Is he likely to take a feed whilst it's got a tad cooler this week?

I’d leave feeding untill the heater is on.

Which should have been about a month ago. ( should have been on during winter aswell just lower hot spot)

But yes wait untill it’s shed and you have a basking spot, otherwise the food will just rot in its belly and not digest
