Hi all,
Around Feb this year my adult/fem/coastal stopped eating. Live/dead/rat/chick/mouse, nothing could get her to eat. I took her to the vet a few times during which she was force fed 3 mice and then 5 mice the last visit. Well the good news is she is back on her tucker. Small rat, then about 3 days later a medium rat and then about a week later, (yesterday) she ate 2 large rats, one after the other.
I assume it is because of a weeks worth of warm days here in the Sydney S/W region. I know tyhere were quiet a few threads about snakes going of their food, has anyone experience there herps coming back onto their food?
Cheers, Davo
