Typical refrain - hog won't eat

I've got a 2 year old male Western Hog. Purchased on 6/9/08, and ate like a champ weekly until 8/14/08. Hasn't eaten since. I don't have a scale, so I don't know if he's lost much weight. He looks okay. I've tried a few things, such as leaving him for a time in a smaller container with a f/t. Also tried to interest him in a brained fuzzy. No luck. There's been no changes in his environment to stress him out -- no traffic walkign by. I did introduce a female into his cage after she shed, hoping for a possible late season love connection. Maybe he's pining for his honey? Any advice greatly appreciated. Thanks, Rick
