Dumeril's refused food

[Brooklynella]

First snake I ever owned that refused food. He shed 2 days ago; they're usually hungry after a shed, especially considering he last ate 1/23. He looked really interested at first but chose to pass.
It's no big deal but I hate when snakes don't eat!

How long u had him, and how big/old is he? Has he eaten for u before?

I just got a baby 3 weeks ago, and he ate last Friday. However, one thing I've read on these guys is that they really do not eat that often, maybe every 2 weeks for a baby and once a month for an adult. Just my $0.02

I picked mine up Jan 1st. he was born Feb-April in '07 (Not sure exactly). Yeah, Dum's generally eat less than garden variety Boas and their metabolism is slower. He's eaten weekly prior to this stoppage. He looked very interested; thats what I find frustrating. Will try again tonight...

He ate.
I feel better now.
