Well I tried him with a small mouse but NOTHING !!
Thankfully he took two whole thawed day old chicks tonight after a mini fast of 10 weeks

Maybe I’ve accidentally fallen on a way of kick starting a fasting Royal / Ball into feeding :)
Just need a few more people to try their stubborn snake with a couple of chick heads :)

Hmmm,
Maybe two chicks at a time makes him feel "full up" and triggers a small fast? Maybe one chick at a time could help?

No it’s the chick heads that coax him OUT of his fasts :)
I really don’t know .. he’s a big lad 1.6k and he took two chicks the very next night ( as he did last time the two chick head trick worked ..)
But why would he go months refusing mice / rats / chicks / gerbils etc BUT then break the fast tempted by CHICK HEADS ?

I think I explained it badly.
I think the chick heads temp him because they are smaller meals and was wondering if the previous feed before he started fasting had made him feel too satiated. Thus triggering the fast when another large meal was offered.
Does that make sense?
