just phoned my pet shop owner again and he recons its down to the drop in temps in the air even though the viv temp never changes the ambient temp of the air has changed and the snakies have realised this and have slowed their bodies down he says its nothing to worry about just be patient and the lil buggers will feed in a few days.

All my corns are alright at the moment, but all the others have gone off their food. The BRB, the hognose and the adult king especially. I think it is down to the season, so I'm not worrying too much about it at the moment. It's just annoying really.

...surprisingly- the Royal is actually eating this month

got cecil to feed today as he shed last night, one of his fuzzies had split its tummy open which got him really worked up, nearly took my hand off when I went to put in his feeding tub.

Bubbles seemed interested in his fuzzy on Friday - kept coming to "sniff" at it but didn't eat it - left it with him for a couple of hours but he still didn't eat. He has gone milky this week so assuming its because he's due to shed, although he has always eaten when getting ready to shed before - perhaps a combination of that and the cold.

Mine are greedy ones.
My cat has decided to start sitting on my viv the past couple of days, and the snakes have been striking at her through the sliders.

Wondering whether to get a nice burm, that'll teach her.
