You might try a f/t bird or chick to see if this will jump start the feeding process. Some Carpets are really fond of birds. You could even try a chicken drumstick from the store if whole chicks are unavailable. If not taken right off, pull the Jungle and leave the bird item in the cage overnight with just the Carpet. I would not recommend force feeding as this has put many snakes off fed and permanently caused them to cease feeding voluntarily. You are also taking a serious risk with permanent physical damage to the python.
