    Still Not Eating, but a little interested!
    Ok, I picked up a weigh scale and his weight is 736grams and he is approx. 3ft long. Does that sound about right??? Oh ya about a year and a half old.

    Well, he still hasn't eaten but now he weighs 748 grams. Should I be concerned? It's been 5-6 weeks that he hasn't eaten.

    He gained weight? either hes sneaking mice on the side, drinking a lot of water, or your scale is out of whack

    one of the three.

    Have you tried live mice?

    No just keep offering every week and keep an eye on his weight. Keep us up to date.

    My little guy stopped eating once for 5 weeks. I got different identical hides and changed the substrate from only 1/4 in of aspen to about 1 in of aspen. And the next week he was eating and has since (except one time when he was in shed).

    Maybe you need to change-up his environment -- he may be bored?
