Ball starting to go off feed

[Ivanator]

So the temps here are starting to drop and one if my balls stopped eating and the other is really slow at it. My question is how long do you guys normally wait till you start feeding again? Constantly trying every week seems like a huge waste if rats.

You don't brumate ball pythons. Where do you get your information?

It's coming to breeding season so generally people lower their temps at night to go along with this. During this time I have my females usually eat ravenously and the males will eat every now and then.

To the original poster, just offer every second week then. If one of them is still eating, even slowly, keep offering it food on a regular basis.

When you hear that someone does something, do your research before you offer the advice out to someone else.

So continue feeding the one that's still eating every week and the one that's stopped, every 2 weeks? Got it.
