sometimes ball pythons just do that, when I had a shipment of 10 girls come in from florida last year they went 7 months without eating, now they are eating like champs. They didn't lose much weight. As long as yours is not I would not be to worried. Make sure your temps are right and humidity though

Sometimes they just do that! I have a male that went a few months without eating and then ate 5 or 6 times in a row, then skipped a couple times, then ate once, then nothing for a couple months. Right now he is eating again, so I am crossing my toes.... He's weird! But also not atypical.

Re: Lesser not eating..
Are you sure the snake is not dehydrated at all? A method I have used with bad feeders is to put them in a small rub full of water as a rehydration therapy for a couple of hours, then place them in a smaller enclosure in a really quiet and dark area and cover them so not as to disturb them al all for a couple of weeks. Then try feeding again. It's worked for me many times. Best of luck whatever you try.
