My first diamond python Monty came home on 4th Dec and is 10 months old. He ate a fuzzy rat on the 13th Dec. I have offered fuzzies since then but he hasn't eaten, we tried braining the rat etc but no luck. He looked sort of interested but didn't eat.
Now his eyes are milky so I guess he is going to shed soon and I am told he won't eat now until afterwards. He is spending a lot of time in the water. The temp ranges from 28-31`C.
He is still living in the click clack (within the larger enclosure) that he was in when I bought him.
My concerns are-
1. firstly that he won't have eaten for so long. Is this a problem? What should I do?
2. not sure whether I should handle him for the time being.
Please help. I am 12 and this is my first snake. He is really docile and the best pet.
