Well, this is the fourth time I've tried to feed him since his last feeding which was January 6th. I've made the prey size smaller, tried waiting longer between feeds and he's still acting hungry but being scared of the rat.

Temps and humidity are stable as always. He went through a perfect shed yesterday and I was hoping he'd have worked up an appetite, but I guess not. He used to drink and eat a lot and therefore poop and pee a lot. He peed a bit yesterday along with his shed but he hasn't pooped since the 14th of January. I know males go through a thing sometimes when they reject food; but how long is too long? When should I become concerned?
Hi Helena. I wouldnt be too worried. It's that time of year. If you really want to make sure nothing is wrong, you might want to consider buying a scale just to make sure he doesnt lose any significant amount of weight. They are pretty cheap now a days. I picked one up on sale for $9.99. You can usually find cooking scales in the kitchen department of stores like Walmart. I know how you ladies love shopping.
