Hello all!!
Roxy didnt eat last week (mex. milksnake).
This is the first time its happend since i got her. She was just days away frm shedding so i didnt think anything of it, just try next week.
Well, she didnt eat again this week and shes shed, so i'm a bit worried, any suggestions/thoughts?
she seems quite healthy! eating is her favorite thing to do! but not these last 2 weeks.

That's what we like to hear! Wish my week old hatchlings were the same!

Its natural to worry but two weeks really is nothing to a snake. Try again as usual next week

Be paitent is all the advice we can give. Two weeks isn't going to do her any harm at all. I have a New Mexico (Celaenops) which hasn't eaten since I bought it back on June 20th, and I'm not worried. As you mentioned she's due to shed, I'd just put it down to that. Offer her food once she's shed, there usually fresh as a daisy after.
