my lil guy hasnt eaten since i got him, which has been two weeks. ive tried feeding him twice and he just didnt seem interested. im feeding f/t and thats what i was told he was eating when i purchased him.

i've tried to dangle it in front of him for a few minutes and he started to creep up on it like he was going to strike and he kept getting closer until his face was touching the mouse and then he just turned away and didnt seem interested any longer.

i thawed the mouse for two hours, pre-scented the room and slowly heated the mouse with a hair dryer.

i also tried to leave it in his feeding enclosure with the lights off for 30 minutes and that didnt work. so i figured i would leave it in his cage to see if he would eat it in there where he was more comfortable.

sorry the post is so long, and i know other people have ball pythons that havent eaten in months but im just wondering what i could be doing wrong or what i could do to help him eat.

thanks.
