Try poking a hole in the head of your hopper. This usually makes any reluctant snake ready to feed. Also, make sure the food is no bigger than the mid section of your snake. I would also try and maybe cover the cage. Some snakes like to eat in the dark. Make it as dark as possible, drop in a "punctured" hopper and leave it alone for about 5 minutes. If this still does not work, try and dip your snakes food in tuna juice, always worked for me GL.
