This is an 06 yearling het ghost. He is about 280gr. Ever since I bought him he has eaten like a pig (even during shedding). But now, it's been a month and has refused 2 meals.

When I bought him he was on fuzzies. He quickly moved up the chain and now he's on small rats. I usally knock-out the rat so it's still "kicking". Now, he seems interested and even "pushes" him and then ignores/avoids the rat. I've left the rat in the tank for hours but then I find him trying to get out, or hiding in a corner.

Nothing has changed, the temp is from 80-85dr. Could he be sensing the change of season? What can I do?
