Off Feed Ball Python

[Druzy]

Since the beginning of March my ball python has refused all meals. At first I wasn’t concerned, but now I am starting to get quite worried. I don’t know how much grams he currently is right now, but I have noticed he is slightly thinner. He doesn’t look ill and he is still very much acting very much likes a healthy ball python. He just hasn’t eaten for a couple of months now. Is this something I should be concerned about? Does anyone have any suggestions of advice? Also all temps have been accurate.

That's one of the evils of bp ownership. As long as he is still active and strong I wouldn't worry too much, they tend to fast often.. There are a few good articles on the net about assist feeding if your worries get the best of you.. There are also a few things You could do such as adding hides, change your feeding time, darker enclosure ect.. I'm on my iPhone if not I would link you to a few sites.
Hope my little bit of info helped. I'll try and post you a few links when I get in the house, but I wouldn't worry to much unless it's lethargic or acting really weird.

Help ease your concerns by purchasing a scale to weigh your snake. Weigh him every few weeks to see how much he is loosing or maintaining.

If he does start to loose a considerable amount of weight (I would say over 100g could be considerable) I would offer him live food.

If you'd rather not wait for him to loose a bunch of weight, try offering live on the next scheduled feeding day.
