Spider Morph Ball Python eating trouble

[bigswede773]

Hello Everyone,

I am new to the forum and new to this type of snake. I have a 1472g male spider morph ball python. He is 119 cm long and we acquired him on November 5th. The last time he has eaten was October 7th. The person we got him from said he eats regularly every 2 weeks. I know they can go long periods without eating, when should I get concerned? We will weigh him every week now that we have a scale capable of doing so. He typically eats live according to the previous owner and we have tried that to no avail as the rat has bitten the snake multiple times. We have tried feeding dead also but with no success. Any info would be helpful. I have a reptostat control with the temp at 84 at night and 92.5 during the day. Our python Monty has multiple hides and we keep the humidity between 40-55%.

Cheers and thanks for the info
