I have had all but  bp's eat for me in the last 2 months. They are both female that have stopped eating so I'm not to sure what exactly that's about. All my males are back on feeding. Anyway, I don't let it bother me unless they visually start losing weight.

I wouldn't offer him food every week as this might cause him to stress as well. Try every 10 - 14 days instead. Good luck and I can't wait to see pics of him. I love balls!! LOL

You've got my vote on that one Heather !!!
Balls are awesome :O)
Yeah, I've heard from many Ball Python owners over the past few months they are off their normal feeding schedules so I wouldn't stress over it either.
WE SEE NEWS STORIES ENTITLED “WHEN PETS GO BAD,” BUT OFTEN A MORE APPROPRIATE TITLE IS “WHEN PET OWNERS TURN STUPID!!!”
