Re: snake is not eating after shed

Don't freak out, you're snake isn't going to die!

Try again in a few days if not another week. I've had the same thing happen to me, and two of my snakes are really infrequent feeders, weeks between feedings sometimes, but both still have a health body shape so I'm not concerned, and neither should you be concerned.

Food waste is a terrible thing; however, if you had two snakes, and one was a good feeder, you could feed the prey that wasn't taken to the good feeder and nothing would be wasted.

Hint, hint...!
