I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say maybe he stopped eating cause its breeding season! I have males that wont eat during breeding and even for awhile after being pulled from the females.If he's been bred before or he's wild caught, he's probably tuned in to when its that time of the year. I would put him in a rubbermaid over night with a DEAD prey item and it will probably be gone in the morning.I wouldnt stress too much yet cause 3 months isnt long for an adult,healthy boa to go with out food.Like you said he isnt even dropping weight yet.Rich
