yeah nothing has changed as far as I know, when u put the mouse in she's rubbing herself on it and going under it but just doesn't want to eat it, she's had the corn snake for around 8 months and this is the first of them having problems with her

It's breeding season, they go off their food, nothing you can do, just continue to offer every week or so. They can fast for up to 4 months I think. As long as she is not losing weight then there is absolutely nothing to worry about.
