He's beautiful! And that was going to be my guess, that he's going into shed. It's very hard to tell when you're new at keeping snakes, but gets easier with
practice; our snakes, however, know long before we do & often they'll refuse food when they sense a shed coming. Of course, prey that's too big can also get
a refusal, & live food is dangerous, especially rats, and especially IF your snake isn't in the mood to eat. Don't worry about your snake not eating throughout a
shed cycle...it's completely normal & they won't starve.![]()
