Hi,
My male corn snake hasn't eaten now for over 3 months, I know it has been his breeding season. He still looks great is very active in his viv and is drinking loads, even had a shed about 6 weeks ago. I would just like to know roughly how long it is meant to last for.

Thanks
Lisa

A couple of years ago, 17 weeks with no adverse effects. Nothing to worry about as long as they are active and no other obvious signs of health issues.

Last year I had a male go 22 weeks. Just keep offering every couple of weeks. Try a smaller than normal meal as his stomach will have shrunk
