Ball Python not eating after shed?
Hello!
Last saturday I brought a 7 months old BP male home. The day I bought him, he was about to shed. He had some issues with it, and the whole shed on him was stuck, so today I gave him a soak in the morning and it all rolled wight of. I tried to feed him today as well, as the guy I got him from said he ate about a week ago (so 2 weeks now). He, however, doesnīt want to take the rat. I feed frozen. He seems interested in it, but doesnīt take it, he just slithers right past it no matter how I wiggle it. I asked the guy if he fed frozen too and he said that it didnīt matter, that his snakes eat everything.
Heīs quite active, but love to hide in his log hide. Evn when hiding, he often peeks out. Heīs not aggressive at all, just a bit skittish and tends to roll up to a ball when you suddenly touch him or just move in a way that spooks him.
This is my first snake and I really love him already, Iīd hate for him to be sick or something. Any ideas what to do with him? Or is he just stressed from me messing with him to get the shed of?
