    BP might be sick need help/advice please

    So I got my second BP in May got a snake rack herpstat ect and I quarantined him from my pinstripe so when the time was right I moved him into the rack. Everything was fine till about 3 1/2 weeks ago, hes missed 3 meals. It seems he really doesn't want to do to much and at night ill check on him and I never ever see him out like wandering around when I use to see him wandering all the time he was a very active lil thing. So that started to bother me and said to myself well the weather is changing and maybe breeding season is close by? (I dunno I don't breed)

    Thing is hes roughly about 430g when I last weighed him so wouldn't that be to young to be acting like he wanted to breed? Now here is the thing that started to bother me. Tried to feed him his 3rd mouse since hes been on this strike just 5 mins ago and nothing he wont even acknowledged it. I had to put the mouse back in the cage yet again while I was putting him back in his tub and I was petting him as he was creeping back and his hide and I tapped on him and he sounded hollow. I know they can go with out food for along time so im not freaked about that what had me started to worry was this hollow thing. Hes never turned down any food what so ever in the past and wasnt picky and was a great eater. If some one could please help out id appreciate it.
