[blue]Hi , although had pics on the site of my cornsnake kelloggs, only recently joined - so hi to everyone!
my problem is that kellogs hasn't eaten for about 8 weeks, i know that sometimes this is not a problem if he is otherwise ok which he seems to be but would just like a bit of reaaurance really- he is two and a half years old, always eaten every 7-10 days up till now, thanks, Helly

Have the temps fallen low recently? Usually they go off food if the temperature goes low and they will try and brummate.

8 weeks is a bit long, but not too harmful as yet. What do you feed him? Have you recently changed anything like moved onto rats instead of mice or anything like that?

He is active, he comes out and has a wander around, sits on his log and basks under the lamp

Welcome to the forums, if he's active it may be that he has sensed the shorter days and gone off his food. Is he near a natural light source perhaps?

thank you, yes he isn't far from the window - how long is he likely to be off his food if that is the case?
