New adult ball python not wating yet

About a month ago I picked up 2 new ball pythons. One of them, the female, is eating amazing. But the other one, the male, is not eating yet. The breeder i got him from said he ate f/t or live. So I tried f/t at first, no response. Then after 3 weeks, tried a live one, as some of my others still eat live, and he at first seemed interested, but then kept striking it and would try to get away. He's a big boy, 1100 grams. He obviously ate before I got him. I'm not to worried at the moment. He's not losing weight, the temp in my rack is always 88. Just want to get your guys opinions.

*eating yet. For title.

Are you offering weekly? What size prey? Time? Etc...

A little more info about what you are doing would def. help.

I have been offering once a week, and a medium rat. Even tried a small rat once. And usually around late afternoon I feed. Room is dark when I feed.

In my experience with adult it's always a 50/50 shot of them not eating, adult seems to take a lot longer to adjust to their new surrendering, easily going weeks to months with no food.

I had it happen with breeder loan animals that I received as well as an adult that I purchased.

All you can do is emulate the former owner's setup and be patient.
