Spider ball not eating ..

[maximus30576]

I got a spider ball on July 2 that was used as a breeder male . He was with females just before i got him according to the shop i bought him at . After a week of settling in i offered him a rat and every week since but he has not eaten yet . He still looks healthy and he roams his cage at night so ive tried feeding at night , in a dark tub , tried mice , tried frozen thawed , live .. You name it ive tried it . Im not to worried yet because i know they can go for months not eating but my question is .....How much weightloss should i expect before starting to worry . He was at 1395g when i got him and he is at 1345g now . Just hoping maybe a breeder or someone that knows more than me can shed some light .. Thanks in advance

He's a breeder male. He's been put with females. He's still in breed mode and looking to keep breeding. It's very normal with males, nothing to worry about.

yeah he is in breeding mood, my male went with out food from Dec to last month when i gave him a live rat now he is in shed and i hope will go back to F/t rats soon.

Congrats on the new snake.
