something I forgot to mention...illness can cause them to stop feeding, so check the nostrils for any signs of a respiratory infection as RI is the most common for Dums. Also, if he is dehydrated, he could be constipated, so you might want to give him a bath in luke warm water. Rechecking your cage conditions should verify either problem if present in the snake. If cage is properly set up, and he continues to refuse to not eat, still don't worry until he starts to loose weight...if that happens, get him to a good reptile vet as soon as you can, but most likely it won't come to that.
