Ive had my corn snake for a bout a a year and a half now, it wasn't full grown when i got it and the age was un known by its owner. i believe it is full grown now, and i believe maybe 3 yrs old? not sure. Im not positive on sex. Crimson(snakes name) hasn't changed his activity level, he is always coming to see me when i come near the tank, and does their normal more active reaction like its hungry. Ive been trying to feed Crimson for about a month maybe two now, every meal crimson will see the mouse and grab it from my hand but then he leaves it on the ground and doesn't eat it. I'm really not sure whats wrong.
temp is good, tank is clean. his activity level is strong, always has water. sheds perfectly. is it possible that crimson is reaching his sexual maturity and could be in simple heat? he's never denied a meal before. and thats the only thing i can think of. Just the fact Crimson will grab the food still is what confuses me. i tried getting smaller meals and its the same thing. i did notice when i last cleaned the tank there was a mouse that wasn't fully digested so I'm curious if he puked that tup or it came out of is butt like that, which i doubt cause it was pretty big, so idk if his stomach was giving him issues? but its been some time you'd think he'd be better. i just don't know what the issue is. how long do they mate for if that is the issue? also can i re freeze the mice so I'm not wasting them or do i need to throw them out after they've thawed. thanks!!
