Mine stopped eating after a week or so when she was gravid. I offered her a couple but she didnt eat until a week after laying her eggs.
Dont worry too much. The eggs inside her make passing food uncomfortable. It couldnt hurt to offer her a smaller than usual mouse, but dont worry if she doesnt eat it :)
Congrats! Eggs are so exciting. |

When was her prelay shed? Some snakes go off food when they're gravid just before they lay, some don't. If she hasn't eaten this week, I'd try offering again next week and see if she'll take it. You can still offer her the regular sized mouse you normally do, but after she lays offer her something smaller than she normally takes as her first feed. |
