Hi,
I have a two and a half year old corn snake we got in the summer.She has always eaten well until the weather changed and we had problems keeping her viv warm enough.It took us a while to sort that out in the mean time she went of her food and stopped eating.It has been over 5 weeks now and she isn't at all interested in food.I know this isn't long
but I have now noticed blood in her feces.She is drinking well looks happy enough and is still wondering around her viv.Any advice would be greatly appreciated.Thanks.

Not eating when it turns colder is not unusual but the blood in the poop is a bit scary so i think it's just gonna be a case of wait and see the vet really. Sound grim but it may be worth taking the poop with you to show the vet.

All the best of luck, hopefully its nothing serious and just a bit of constipation from the eating problems.
