My 2 yr old Male albino has stopped feeding for 4 weeks now. This is very unusual for this guy....I also do not think he has deficated during this time. Is he just backed up? Anything I can do to help him? No Mites, cage is very clean, plenty of water, housed alone, gets out of cage 3 times per week, Changing over to Fall in NJ?

Thanks

Ok I'll give it a shot !! 2 years old I would imagine he's 9' or close ,maybe more.. great... most likely in a breeding mode this time of year,sounds like your doing fine with your set-ups,take a vaction and try later on...provide a hide stop and warmth...all will be ok..

Is he bumping his nose, pacing the cage and acting like he's trying to escape?

Also, Is there a mature female snake around him?

consider checking for mouth rot as well, especially if there is any asymetry or puffiness of the snakes face or cheesey stuff along its mouth line. If you dont know how to check him, ask someone experienced to show you how to do a mouth inspection and make sure you have at least two people (self included) to restrain the rest of the snake while you check.
