Hmm, Phil and Kyle have good tips. Also I would suggest that you do a tiny bit of research on that breeds eating habits. I have a BP that hasn't eaten since September, but it is common for BP's to go off their food. Maybe it's something similar with your snake?

I was very relieved and last night she shed for the first time since I'vehad her. I hope your ball eats soon for you when I first got my first ball it drove me insane tring to get it to eat.
