I got a baby ball on may 21st at the tulsa expo and he isn't eating. he didn't eat the first time (a week after I got him) but I understood he was probably nervous. But it has been a while... he doesn't even show any interest in eating. He cruises his tank but totally ignores food. What can I do to coax him?

I allways just wait them out! one of my female (sub adult)balls did not eat for a year but I just put a mouse or rat in with her every time I feed my other snakes and two days ago she ate two small rats. I was shure the rats had got out some how but that couldnt happen so she just got hungry enough to eat what was offred to her. good luck!
