I am sadly having to re-home my girl snake due to having to downsize, so won't be enough space anyway, she hasn't been eating for 4 or 5 weeks now, i am selling her to a girl in my class at school who's dad has wanted a snake for AGES, but do you think that as a first time buyer that it's not a good idea? And is there anything that i can do to make her eat Or even show and interest in food? Why do you think that she's not eating?


Thanks

Lots of them are off food at the moment, my one is on/off with food at the moment, too busy exploring to stop and eat. its the time of year (breeding season). I personally wouldn't let a snake thats not eating go to a new home. I don't think there is any health reason behind not moving them though other than a move is stressful and may stop them eating for longer than if they were to stay put.

oh Ok thank you, i did think it might be something to do with breeding season but as my boy isn't I thought that maybe she might be ill. But I will tell my friend about it, Thank you :)
