just to echo okeetee mick, i have a corn thats slighty younger and it was a good month to 6weeks before he ate, and also ive heard on here that some corns have gone months without food, so nothing really to be worried about ATM, leave him a copule of weeks and try and feed him then
ps. ive notice that mine are less "agressive" and slower when eating and ive just put that down to the weather, and ive decided instead of giving theres every week ive changed it to every 10-12 days... hope this helps |

Eight days without a feed for a three year old snake is nothing, certainly wouldn't be concerned at this stage. |

Not a good idea to re-freeze, so best to throw away.
12hrs is probs max you can leave it. Is your snake due a shed? Could be why off its food. Failing that leave a pinky in there ad cover the viv/faun/rub with a towel so it's dark. He may be a shy feeder. |
