Re: Seriously ball python won't eat. Nothing wrong medically or husbandry wise.
He doesn't look all that underweight to me. :)
The other reason I suggested mice is simply that they smell more. Pre-scenting so they know food is going to be offered later can get them "in the mood" so to speak. And, while you can get a lot of exotic rodents online they tend to be more expensive or not be available all the time. No sense of converting him to a food source you then discover you can't get. ;)

I have a male that's always been super picky. He will only eat his food hot. Let the offering thaw for the normal amount of time. Then put the water in the microwave for a mi minute and a half, put the offering back in for 3-5 minutes then try again. Good luck!
