Hog Island Boa won’t eat?

Hi everyone.

I have a hog island male boa. He’s my first snake and I’m loving him He’s extremely friendly

Since Iv gotten him, he’s been extremely easy to feed. I’d put him in a separate large black plastic container (his feeding bin) and i would only have to dangle the prey (he’s only ever eaten frozen / thawed) for about 3 seconds before he would snap at it and start to eat. He would eat 1-2 rat pups each feeding. He’d have one feeding a week.

The last 4 feedings however (last 4 weeks) he has not been interested in food at all.

Nothing has been changed in his environment, he’s just randomly stopped eating. His temps are good, he’s got a couple hides, he’s got a water dish, and he’s not shedding.

Is it normal he just randomly loses interest in food? Should I be concerned for him not eating for 4 weeks?
