i have 1 adult corn snake 1 young corn snake and niether of them will eat i have had the adult for just over a month and the younger 1 i have had for 2 weeks.the adult has recently shed its skin.s/he is around 4 foot the younger 1 is 22 inches and like a boot lace the temp is 80 degrees i have also a cali king snake and the viv setups are pretty much the same and so is the temp.the cali king snake has eaten from day 1 and shed its skin at the same time as the adult corn. so can any 1 help. i have tried the adult on weener mice and pinkies for the younger corn.
 
how are you feeing it?

in its viv or in a seperate container?

are you just leaving the mouse down or wiggling it with tweezers to trick the snake into thinking its alive?

If the problem persists, you could try braining the mouse etc

my best advice for you is to use the search function, there a LOADs of threads on feeding, and they explain methods of tease feeding and so on.


hope i could be of help :)
 
In the case of your adult, it cold be a male that's gone off feed for breeding season. My male hasn't eaten in 3 months.
