    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I have had a female ball python for more than 4 month, she is an adult and when I got her she used to eat any frozen rat that she saw every week. But 2 month ago I moved with my collection and now she hasn't eaten since then. I was thinking that it was breeding mode but she dropped from 2100g to 1800g in that time. And her tail looks like she just laid eggs but she hasn't. A few weeks I saw some pink stuff like pee but it wasn't red, I thought it was from a bad shed, but she did it again yesterday. I want to take her to the vet but waiting for stool, but she hasn't eaten in months.
Anyone has had same experience? Really worried she won't eat and keeps dropping weight and the pee keeps coming but no stool.
 
If she hasn't eaten for months, there's no point in waiting for stool, take her to the vet as soon as you can.

2 months isn't a long time for a healthy snake to go off feed, but 300 gm is quite a lot of weight to lose in that time (are your scales accurate?)

If you can post some pictures of her body and tail, and maybe of the "pink stuff" it might help get better advice on here, but to me it sounds strange and you would be best to get professional advice.
