Every year my Sinaloan milksnake acts really weird and goes off his food for the summer months. He gets a whole lot more active, watches me constantly through the glass and will try to escape over and over.

He will not touch his food no matter what I try and he does this every single year (he's six now and I've had him four years). Usually he stays in his cave and I barely see him, but at the moment he just doesn't keep still.

What's wrong with him and why won't he eat?

Do you think? I've never given him a cooling down period though...Is it possible? He was used for breeding before I got him. How long is this likely to last if he is just horny lol

He wants to mate.
It'll likely last until Autumn/Winter.

He's trying to lay out next to you to see if he's big enough to eat you yet...

Sorry, your vet is talking c**p!!!!!!

This is a prime example of needing to ensure your vet is an exotic specialist.

As a male, he wants to mate, no big drama.

chill its early in the morning they are taking the mick. But you are quite right we do need to use vets that are exotic specialists.
