Harri was blue a week ago on Sunday, I always offer him food at this stage and normally he eats it without a problem. This Sunday his eyes had cleared and he ate his mouse again and still looked as if he wanted more so I offered him seconds and sure enough down that went as well. So left him in his feeding tub for it to go down a bit, went back about 10 minutes later and I had one very shiny snakey and a full shed.
So this proves some corns are very happy to feed when blue ! ! !

I have yet to own a snake who doesn't feed when in blue!

I don't know if they get more grumpy once older but all mine are quite young and are just as greedy when due a shed lol

most of mine will feed if given the chance, i personally choose not to feed until they've shed unless it's an individual i'm trying to feed up.
it's just personal preference, and ultimately down to the snake

cornsnakes, ratsnakes, bullsnakes, boas and day geckos
