Ok so I hadn't realized so many people had continued replying. I posted a thank you post a while back not sure if any of you have seen it. It was basically saying that I got him to eat! I followed many people's advice and he is now wonderful the problem was definitely the size of the tank. I got him in a new enclosure and sold my old one to someone with a much larger species of snake. As for the distilled water at the time I was using something called "Reptile water" which was NOT DISTILLED I guess at the time I thought that was what it was but it was not. I kinda stopped replying to this post after a while leaving some of your questions unanswered. I got really busy because of a death in the family while also trying to keep up with him and kind of forgot for a while. This is and update post and as of now there is nothing wrong with him. So after he started eating I waited for a couple of months and started handling he was really scared but has really improved. He was a lot smaller than normal pythons his age so I took him to a vet and they said the age I was given is most likely incorrect. He is just now about a year and 2 months and will be having his first rat! My boy grew big and strong and is now ready for even bigger food. I am so glad I got this sorted out and I wanted to thank everyone. I was really under informed when I got him as I was given a lot of wrong information from many people and I now realize that If I have any future problems here would be the place to go. Hopefully I can figure out how to post photo's soon so everyone can see his progress and how much of a handsome boy he is. Again thank you everyone!
