I usually feed my adult corn snake 3 live mice every week, however she has been refusing the mice for the past three weeks. i have been expecting her to shed also, but this has not happened either, how can i get her to eat, is this relevant to her temperature?

How big are the mice... You could be over feeding if there too big.. the corn can usualy live on 1 mouse per week-10days.Also it is spring and she may be looking for a mate.

What temperature is she at? In order for someone to have an opinion if its temperature related, we need those sort of details.

I've noticed that my boyfriend's ball python will refused F/T at times, so we tried a live mouse and he attacked it almost instantly. I sometimes poke the prey with a stick so as to give the impression that its alive. It sometimes works out, other times it doesn't.
