helo everyone my name is ste better know as jake the snake I have a corn snake not quite sure on its breed, his age is about 3-4 years old, not had him long. Could you please tell me how long will the snake go for without feeding I think he is shedding at the moment would this make a difference to his feeding any advice on this subject would be very much apreciated

Well, my five year old corn goes off feed when she is preparing to shed, and she does fine. If it were me, I'd just wait untill the snake sheds and then feed him.

thanks AI99 I thought that he was going to shred will wait and see what happens

Feeding problems are always that-a problem! My son's corn was due to be fed on Monday. We did not have a mouse, so bought one on Tuesday and tried to feed him Tuesday night. He absolutely shunned the mouse, looked it over, then got far away from it. He had travelled in the car on Monday, about 2hours worth, as my son brought him home from college that day. Maybe he was stressed, I don't know. So, we waited a day and tried to fee him again yesterday, Thursday, and again he would not eat. I don't think he is right on top of a shed time, although maybe a week or so. Anyhow, it is upsetting to me that he will not eat. He is not my snake, my son is at school until Sunday, and I am feeling guilty about the whole thing. He is full grown, has been a good eater. Any ideas?

yes, a new move might affect his temps check them. also again a new move will stress him out let him settle in for a week and then go back to feeding as normal

hope this helps
