if anyone else has experience with this let me know...
i think the outside weather affects my corns feeding habits quite a bit. when cold weather is coming they eat less. my belief is that its the pressure changes that cause this not the outside temperature. (as they have no way of knowing the weather unless they are peeking out the window when my backs turned) most animals sense changing weather much more quickly than we do mainly based on humidity and barometric pressure. since snakes rely on external heat for digestion an increase in pressure normally followed by a drop in temperature probably decreases their appetite and puts them in slowdown mode. want to test this? : 1) drop the temperature of your rack by 5-6 degrees a few days before feeding and see who doesn't eat. or.... 2) watch your weather and try feeding the day a cold front is expected to move in.
let me know what you all think....
