    What are you feeding it? I have two brand new 2016 baby ball pythons I just got in the mail, I've been feeding them live pinky mice, just barely have their eyes open, crawlers I guess you would call them? They both ate last week. You may try breeding your own mice and see how that goes. Or if you are lucky you could get a female mouse that already has babies on her, that way the young mice won't starve to death if your snake doesn't eat them right away. I had an Arizona Mountain king snake that didn't eat for two months. I gave her live pinky mice and she ate two instantly! There's just something about live mice that triggers the feeding response. Some snakes just refuse to eat dead mice from the freezer.
