Feeding while Shedding

[Cegninedorf]

It's not normal for corns to fast during winter if they aren't put into brumation by the keeper cooling them and keeping them dark.

I should have clarified in my post, as well: with the "seasonal anorexia," I only really experience that with my bearded dragon and leopard geckos, and I had trouble with it because I was also *trying* to get them to eat while medicating them...I can't say that I've ever noticed my corns refuse during the colder months, but then again, this is only my second winter with them, so I consider myself very much the novice yet. :shrugs:

Me too! I try to stick to topics I do know about, or link to a post by someone else if I think it may help. I may have sounded harsh, but I felt the other poster was perhaps running before they could walk. If the wrong information isn't challenged, the worst case scenario is it being followed to the detriment of the snake.
luvmycorn; I really didn't mean to offend you, and hope I wasn't too heavy-handed.

I know your corn has now shed and eaten, but for all those who say you cant tell a snow is in blue, and when they are they wont eat, i just thought id show a pic of my snow, in blue tucking into a pinkie, and also a pic of her a couple of weeks before. You can normally tell when your snow is in blue, if you know your snake well and how it looks / feels.

(And our leopard gecko is definately in her winter mode now, madame will only eat a giant mealworm if she has a waxworm entree)
