My Dum won't eat!! Help

[Vv_SoulTaker]

I am worried, Gunther my Dum hasn’t ate in 2 whole months. He is around 6 ½ foot with an average girth. I have been trying everything. Changing temps giving him privacy. I even just for the sake of trying I gave him a mouse. Still nothing… I have never had this problem with him before. Can anyone enlighten me on this mater?
Thank you in advance

have you put him hibernation yet? Maybe that is why he is not eating. They usually will not eat for a couple of months. watch in spring he will be eating like a champ.

Am I suposta put him into hibernation? I have never done that before. Have never actualy heard to put Dums into hibernation. I have had Gunther for over 6 years now and never once did it even cross my mind.

Dumerils do not hibernate. Some breeders cycle their boas to prepare them for breeding. And many do not.
At certain times during fall & winter some adult boas will stop feeding. This is normal. Its just a sign that it is breeding season. Your boa is just wanting to breed. In the spring his feeding should go back to normal.
