Should be fine for a while as long as he retains most of his weight. If he gets a little skinnier, that's okay too. Remember, in the wild you will almost always find healthy snakes much skinnier than captive born ones of the same species. As long as all of his ribs don't start showing, you should be alright! I currently have a male, six foot kingsnake that has refused rats (his usual meal), mice, fuzzies (live or dead) and hasn't eaten since late November. But he's doing his job as a breeder and enjoying it!!! He's very healthy, still pretty thick and all over the females, LOL!!! I'm sure that once he's had a few copulations and settles down, his mind'll go back to rats!!!
