Hi, I'm really sorry to hear that and hope he recovers asap.
Sorry I can't advise (although I have an idea it depends on the individual snake) and I'd be interested to know myself whether feeding in this situation is a good idea.
But just wanted to wish the little guy a speedy recovery. |

| Hi, if he's not underweight I'd just leave him for the 3 weeks, won't do him any harm unless he was in a serious weight condition prior to the RI. |

| Don't worry, 3 weeks is nothing at all, it will give him a chance to get over it and then hopefully he'll be nice and hungry for you, ready to start eating again. |
