Boas not eating....Gotta love winter

[pcncb]

Just wanted to rant about some of the boas being picky for winter time.
-1 baby nic, 2 weeks no eating
-1 older nic, 1 week no eating
-Suri x hypo male, no eating(in shed)
-young 1.1 Dum pair(male in shed, female just refusing today?)
-0.3 balls, no eating, picky or shedding

Anyone else have the boas that seem to slow when the winter hits?

All of my snakes slowed feeding, Apep didn't eat for a month and half.

Mine has refused food for almost two months--I've offered a thawed rat, his usual, 3 times and had to throw the rat out. What a waste!

meh. It's all individual. My suri has never refused...

	Suriname Redtail Boa Red Tail Boa Constrictor (Boa constrictor constrictor) from the locale of Suriname. Considered to be a "True" Red Tail.

I thought i was alone on this topic.
My 6 month old Columbian hasn't eaten in 2.5 weeks.
I'm starting to get worried....
is this normal for them??

I have a juvenile male retic that has not eating in nearly 3 months. I will give him another month or so than he will have to be taken to the vet so that we can jump start his appetite.

Funny how these creatures are, aren't they? Some eat less, some don't. I've never experienced this. Weird weird weird.

Since I generally keep my herp building at around 75-78 degrees in there all the time all year round, the only change in there is the dramatic humidity increase when I bring my turtles inside for the winter and have them in their winter ponds.

The only ones who go off feed the most during the winter are my female ball pythons.

Everybody else... mostly boas... they're still pigs. lol
