My New Snake

[ConcinusMan]

This time of year, the room I was using for my snakes is usually around 60-65. I would be brumating most of them now though, at 45-50 in a small fridge with the door cracked a tiny bit.

The temperature range is probably 65-70. It's not that cold but not too warm. Yeah, he has an option to either stay on a colder side, move up closer to his light on this tall log I got him, or just relax on his rock. He has heat sources.

Update: I just felt the air around his coconut, it's plenty warm. The light spreads a small amount of heat everywhere in his tank. His temperature is fine.

When are you leaving? Is it possible to get a timer to control the light before you leave?

Tomorrow is the day I leave... and he doesn't seem to want to eat. He hasn't eaten anything in about 2 weeks now. He seems to have gotten bigger, but he hasn't been moving around as much either. His tank's temperature is fine. Right now, he's sitting next to two pieces of a worm, both alive and moving. He's just sitting there, dead still. I don't think he's sick because if I touch him or move my finger close to him, he moves very fast like always. He just doesn't show any interest in eating.

How many hours of daylight are being provided? How is the light intensity? If the day is too short or dim, the snakes will often stop feeding to get ready for winter brumation.
