Ball python acts hungry but skipping meals

Thanks, I'll go ahead with the move, then! I hope he comes around soon, it makes me a little sad that he doesn't feel safe enough to eat when I'm around anymore. He definitely still recognizes me but I don't think he trusts me as much as he did before Hopefully that will change with time.

Yeah with animals the hardest thing is not knowing what they're really thinking and feeling! The best we can do is try to analyze and make the environment as ideal as possible.

I hope he settles down after this too- but he can't understand what's been going on. Some snakes seem to be way more sensitive than others, & this one's sure not a "social butterfly". In my opinion, from what you said, he wants a low-key household with few surprises. You'll have to be patient, this is not one of those fierce snakes in the movie legends.
