My 4 yr.old ball has me very concerned. He has always been very gentle and docile I have even described him as loving, and always very easy to feed and not head shy at all.Until the last month or so, He hasnt eaten in 8 weeks he has never gone more than 4 before. and he is acting very aggressively. He throws himself around his cage tearing everything up hitting his head on the side and he moves away from my touch very quickly. When he used to be eager for me to touch him. IS he acting this way because he is hungry?? I have offered many times a very nice live rat which he refuses to eat. I am at a loss as what to do. I am getting afraid to touch him. He is about 4 feet long and very very girthy I do not want to get bit. I would appreciate any advice some one could give. Thanks
