    Re: New ball phyton not eating / not loosing weight and acting strange

    1. Relax. Your snake isn't going to die from starvation. Going long periods of time without eating is their superpower.
    2. Good news! It's probably your fault. So, you can fix it. Most issues with snake are due to husbandry. This forum has a very good care guide for ball pythons that you should review (https://ball-pythons.net/forums/show...ius)-Caresheet). It even has a section specifically devoted to trouble shooting feeding issues.
    3. If you post pics of your snake and your enclosure. We can help you troubleshoot. This thread will show you how to post pics (https://ball-pythons.net/forums/show...-Post-Pictures).
    4. The bad news is that, if it's not your husbandry, then your snake is sick and will need to see a vet. If you do not already have one, this site will help you find a qualified vet in your area (https://usark.us4.list-manage.com/tr...4&e=3b027cc1fe).
