I guess if I were in your shoes I would have a couple of options (wait I am in your shoes). Try feeding some off things, like a hamster, or go to petco and buy the cheapest small bird (whatever that would be, parakeet?). Then try small lizards, and maybe even a wild mouse. I know many people say thats no good, but maybe catch a wild mouse and put it in the same cage as the domestic mouse, to make it smell like the wild one (I hear pythons have an affinity for wild mice). Its pretty easy to catch one, put out those harmless compartment traps with some cheese in it. I was able to catch 3. You can also get the domestic mouse, and knock it really hard, til death comes. But you have to make sure its dead, so you can leave it in the cage overnight. The next step is to go to the vet. Snake could have an internal disease, you would never know. If you go to the vet, have some feces though. Right now one of my adult carpets is like yours- she eats every now and then, but mostly no dice. If she starts to lose bodyweight, Im headed to the vet. They treat you like a dog but your only human!

My GTP never gives me problems though... but good luck and have a ball.
