My stimsons python is about 2.5 years old and 1m long. He hasn't eaten for the past 3 months even though he has been very active. He was eating 1 adult mouse a week before. I tried to feed him a baby mouse today, not newborn I think they r called wiener mice, and he took it. I'll try to feed him an adult mouse next week but if he doesn't take it and I have to stick with baby mice, I was wandering how often I should feed him considering he was previously taking larger food? And would it be on the one night or spread out?
thanks!
 
My 3yo has two adult mice a fortnight. Give one then when that's consumed and he's moving around offer the other.
 
I wouldnt swap to a smaller size, keep him on the adult mice. Its around the time of year adults stop eating. My yearling stimmi has been off food for a while still active. I suggest you look up brumation
 
Stimson's are notoriously erratic feeders at any time. They rarely lose any condition despite going off food for months sometimes, so just keep doing what you've always done.
