I would not blame shop for it , mabe there is something you doing. Not that I want to have go on you, but if the snake was ok for 3 months and eat right after purchase. |

| | | | is that why you insinuated that it was their fault, because you bought it from them and 3 months later the weather changed.
I am not having a go, just suggesting that when it comes to peoples business(and i have no idea if it's a good one or not) we should all be careful and think about the potential effects of off hand comments. |

Worked for me. | Hey spotted, my spotted python has stopped eating plenty of times in the 6 years that i have had him. one time he even stopped for 6 months and then out of the blue started eating again. So i wouldn't worry too much. You shouldn't always go on the defense and blame breeders or shops when things don't seem right. Snakes can be just like people and have problems arise at anytime and unexpectedly. It may not always be the previous persons fault. The healthiest snake can become sick or change its habits at anytime, and it could be completly out of your control. So don't stress |
