To start with i'm not talking about a corn but a Japanese ratsnake, all my other posts have been about corns as i have one. the reason i am asking you is because i believe there are far more knowlagable people in these forums and other ratsnake ones haven't given me any suggestions. Plus i think this is a general snake problem. thanks
Anyway my 9-14 month old Japanese ratsnake hasn't eaten for a month and he has only ever not eaten before. when he did before i squeezed the head of a mouse until some brain fluid came out and he eat one (after 3 weeks) then a week and a bit later he shedded and carried on eating as normal. there is no sign of a comin shed yet and the last time he shed was almost 2 months ago (he normally wouls shed around now but if he hasn't eaten much then he won't of got much bigger to need to.
If anyone has any suggestions then i would be very grateful.
