Hunger Striking Ball Python

I have a 3-4 year old python that has gone off feed. I have owned her for nearly a year. She has always eaten frozen-thawed. Her last meal was April 9th of this year so she's been three months on strike. She has had two complete sheds since that time and seems other wise very healthy. Although food has been offered, she has refused it. Otherwise, her behavior is normal. Should I be overly concerned? Can anyone offer any suggestions?

Dont be overly concerned.

Just offer up on a consistent basis. If you do worry, try live prey.

thats still normal. Ball pythons often behave like that. I think if you give her a live gerbil that should do the trick.
