My baby ball python won't eat

This is the 2nd week since he has no eatin I left him Alone for another 5 days and today I tried to feed him a baby live fuzzy I had also gotten the snake from a breeder please guys any tips I'm really starting to get worried.

What is your husbandry like?

Enclosure size?

Temps?

Humidity?

Hides?

etc

Food refusal with hatchling (given they were well started) is often husbandry/stress related.

For the time being I would suggest a smaller enclosure if the animal is a 2011 hatchling something like a 6 tubs quarts until the animal reaches about 250/300 grams would be ideal.

Along with that aspen bedding and GRADIENT temps.

And no handling until he eats with consistence for you.
