Hi,

Could he be going into shed?

Some do not eat while shedding but others carry on as if nothing has changed.

Have you changed anything in his tank or environment recently or bought the prey from a different location? What are you feeding him and how do you prepare and present it?

Have you double checked the temps and humidity with a good digital thermometer to make sure everyhting is still ok?
