Thanks!
I've been really worried about my snake how long does the breeding season last? would it eat a pinky or a fuzzy? during this period.

Hi . Sadly it's not an exact science .. .... He's done this for a few years now ... Sometimes he will go 7 weeks without eating and other years he will randomly take one after missing a few and then not eat for another few weeks ... I have 16 snakes so I just try him each week and if he refuses just give it to another snake

My female corn snake is a little over a year. i've been feeding her fuzzies in a shoe box since she was only a few months old, the last time she ate however i only had a larger fuzzy which she still ate, although it was a little big for her. that was in september, she has not eaten since. i've tried every week to feed her, minimized handling, have the tank at a constant temperature. she is acting normal, but i have not seen her drink water, or defecate. i just don't know what to do. please help

I’d start feeding in the viv .. over a piece of card or even a dish to minimise the risk of substrate ingestion ..

Some Corn snakes do occasionally go off their food for a few weeks / months .. my two adults certainly do
