He STILL won't eat

[redshepherd]

My guy stopped eating as well. I switched from frozen-thawed to live, and as a matter of fact, he ate 5 live mouse fuzzies this afternoon. He is 22" long 78 grams, and not quite a year old. I wasn't sure if he would eat them all, but he never hesitated. I am now hoping he didn't over-eat. Is that a thing? My previous BP starved herself to death. I never tried live-food with her, (since she was weened on frozen-thawed), which was all I didn't try. I tried force feeding and everything else, but she still refused. I was devastated. Not going to let that happen again! Finding live fuzzies without having to buy in bulks of 50 was a challenge. It is a 50 mile drive to DFW Reptarium in Plano, Tx, but it was well worh it to see my guy eat so hearty. Shout out to DFW Reptarium! Great staff and gorgeous inventory! I wish you all the best! https://i.imgur.com/x1CH3uU.jpg

Maybe you can make a new thread and people can give you advice. There is 100% a fix-able reason why your ball pythons do not eat and how the last one starved itself to death, and I guarantee it is husbandry related. Feeding live is definitely more enticing to snakes, sometimes even to a ball python who is in an improper setup, which is why he ate.

Once you have your husbandry fixed up, your snake can even be switched to frozen thawed and you don't need to make 50 mile drives.
