Hi! I got a baby pastel ball python about 4 weeks ago. And he has yet to eat for me. I know balls are notorious for being fussy but since he is so young I'm nervous about him not eating anything. I've tried mice (fuzzies and sm mice) and rat pups, all f/t. I've left him overnight with them in his cage and in a covered deli. I even tried to assist feed which I didn't really want to do but even so, he just sat there with it in his mouth for 10 mins and then spit it out. He's in a 10g. Temps are 92 on the hot side and 80-84 on the cool end. Humidity is anywhere from 45 to 70 depending on when I mist it or change the substrate. He on cypress mulch, two identical hides. I've got 3 sides and the top partly covered. I measure with an Acurite thermometer and have a uth with thermostat. I think I covered everything If not, let me know.

I'm just worried cause he is a pretty tiny guy. I'm pretty sure he's hungry bc he's cruisin the tank every night. According to the breeder, he was eating f/t (hopefully they were telling me the truth ) so I would really really not want to give live if possible. Thanks for any advice anyone could give me!
