Hi everybody,

I got a question about feeding. One of my 1year old ball pythons hasnt eatin for me in about 3 weeks. He is my most aggressive feeder and I have never had a problem feeding him. He always wants more than I give him. I feed him F/T small rats. I have tried about 3 different times in the last 1 1/2 weeks. I dangle it by the front of his hide box and he shoots out as usually when he smells it. But the problem is he just smells it but never strikes it. I've been feeding the same rats from the same package for the last 3-4 months to him without a problem. I bought more just in case it was the rats but he wouldnt take the new ones either. Is there anybody who has had a simliar situation? Any comments would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Tom
