bleeding nose on corn snake

Question
my son has a corn snake that is about a year old and his nose started to bleed do you know why? he hasn't eaten in 2 months and has no interest

Answer
My advice would be to get him to a vet to get checked out as soon as possible. not feeding for two months is quite a long time for a young corn snake and if it was feeding fine beforehand it usually indicates there's a problem; be it physical like a parasite or illness or psychological like stress. The bleeding nose could also be a serious problem.

Hope for the best and thanks for your question,

Andy
