Hello BP.Net members! I've searched the forums for a little insight on this issue and haven't found a satisfactory response. Hopefully someone can give their two cents and save this gorgeous boy.

I have a male piebald that weighed about 650g earlier this year. Around April he went off feed, as BPs tend to do, and didn't worry until about August. At that time there was a thermostat failure which resulted in scale burn. He has shed twice since then, with a little assistance, and injury is healing very nicely.

My concern is not only has he not eaten since April but now he is recovering from a burn that was nearly 3/4 of his scutes. Tried f/t and fresh prekilled rats, and live mice. There is no feeding response whatsoever. Now he is close to 400g and rather thin. Drinking normally.

Any advice? Current humidity is about 50-60%, temps 82-95. There is a second BP housed in similar fashion and she is pounding two weaned rats weekly.
