A baby Suboc at the Staten Island Zoo was lost for over 9 months before it was found, starved and dehydrated. Found half-dead, it later went on to break a longevity record for the species. LOL Now, that baby probably went into torpor and had more temp options than a snake in an enclosure, so that it could regulate energy expenditure. But you get the idea...don't worry yet.

Bottom line, as long as your snake is getting hydrated and his weight and overall health appears good, I wouldn't worry.
