    A bp not eating for 2 weeks after the stress of moving is not uncommon, and imo isnt a reason to return it. I just don't believe in taken something out of a pet store where most employees don't know much and then turning around and placing it back in that situation. Unless the snake is sick there's no reason IMO to return it and even then it would be hard for me to do that bc they most likely won't do anything. You need to make your husbandry spot on and then offer the appropriate sized feeder once a week, if it refuses you wait another week. Don't try to feed every other day that will only bring more stress. Not eating could be anything from improper temps to a hide not being secure enough so it is very important to ask questions and follow the advice given. Also posting pictures of your setup can be a huge help when your snake isn't eating.

    Idk if you have read this but the link below is the care sheet, look it over once and then again and then again and make the necessary adjustments.
