Back in April I purchased an 2010 male Piebald from a breeder. When I got him he was 950 grams. He hasn't eaten since I got him. I try and feed him live, f/t, rats, mice bi-weekely. I contacted the breeder after a couple of vet visits and he said the he would take the snake back. He refunded me the money and told me he would contact me when he is ready for me to ship the snake back. The vet says that there are a few reasons that could lead to the snake not eating. He is currently down to 750 grams. I email the breeder twice a week and have called him with no replies. The last contact I had with him a month ago he said not to try to feed the snake again.

My question is what should be my next move. I don't want to just keep the snake and wait for it to die. I still try to feed it but with no luck. I understand that the breeder may not want it back because of the future vet bill cost. I kinda have my hands tied because technically it isn't my snake since he refunded me the money. My vet suggested that I try force feeding him if he still hasn't eaten in 2 weeks. I don't want to force feed him without the breeders approval but he isn't replying to my calls/emails. What would you guys do? Thanks in advance!
