My best suggestion is see what your friend is doing that you aren't..

Re: need advised
From my experieince, most ball pythons go off food because they are stressed out. I suggest making their enclosure dark by covering the sides and most of the top. You should also have two hides in the enclosure, so the can hide if stressed out.

Re: need advised
Are you moving them frequently?
Are they housed together?

Re: need advised
You are not planning to breed those 2 girls are you?
Correct me if I am wrong but I think you should wait till they are around 3 and at least 1500 grams.
Also what are your temps?
Do you have hides for them?
Have you tried live mice?
Do you have any other animals around their cages that could be stressing them?
And transferring them from one house to another I would imagine would be HUGELY stressful.

@ Wh00h0069
thanks for the advise, i'm planning to make woods cage for them, just open in the front, side by side and behind by woods, just front using glass, maybe i'll close the front for half.
@ snakesRkewl
i never moving them frequently, first arraive at my house i get them in aquarium, they dont eat for 2 months, and i move them to wood cage they don't eat for a month,then i leave them in my freind house
i never house them together, all my snake house alone.
@ BPelizabeth
i'm planning to breed them in march'10 but if their weight not 1500 maybe i'll wait..
my temp are 32-34 celcius, i give them hiding, i already give them live mice, live rat baby, they don't want to..
all my pet was thrid floor of my house, the room together with my bearded and gecko
in addition, my other ball eat normally in that room
