Re: Boa not eating

No offense taken. I wondered the exact same thing. I asked people if the snake would die from lack of eating. If it would actually get to that point. I find that interesting as well. In the wild, it may happen and maybe it would just die. I don't have an actual answer but would love to know the facts. After talking to the breeder, who still seemed to think he "had to of eaten" but was rather vague, and a couple other breeders, the few said that they have about 1 out of 100 snakes that is a "problem feeder." Not sure. Our husbandry seems correct. I even bought an additional humidity gauge and thermometer to be on the safe side. So I now have two sets on one side and one set on the other. But I agree, something has to be off, just not sure what that is. ANd until we figure it out, I can't have him losing weight. I do hope this triggers his appetite. Thanks for the kind words as I do appreciate them. I feel like we did the right thing.
