Hey everyone

I have a ball python he's a cb15, I Brought him on the 13/03/16 he was in shed and hadn't eaten for a week but was told last time he had eaten he took a small weanling rat.

On the 18/03/16 I gave him a soak and he passed a solid greeny white mass I belive is something to do with urine but can't remember what its call, a few hours later he passes a rather large poo, I thought this was odd as it had been so long since he had eaten.

He shed that night, I waited a couple of days and offered him a small weanling rat that I had brought from the place I Brought him, I offered it him in the viv I place it on his hide on the warm side and left him too it. Come morning he had not eaten.

I weighed him and he only weights 225g so went out and Brought him some rat pups to try, waited a couple more days and tried again still nothing.

Have offered him another one today after not handling him for 48 hours and he seems to not be interested I will leave it over night as I'm aware they are nocturnal.

I have read up of them fasting, needing time to settle, getting the right temp (mine are 28 Celsius cold side and 32 Celsius warm side), he has a hide on both sides of his viv, a moss box in the middle and a large water bowl and climbing things in his viv as well as a few decorations.

My worry is that when I first got Him he felt alot more solid then he does now, he feels all squidgy if that makes any sense. I didn't measure him straight away as wanted to let him shed and settle in now I am regretting it as I don't know if he's lost weight and his age is making me worry aswell.

Any help would be greatly appreciated and sorry for the bit of an essay
