I have a ball python who is almost a year old and she isn't eating, its been three months now and we have tried several different rats. I have checked her temperature in the cage cleaned it made sure the water is clean and still don't know whats wrong with her!?! any suggestions please
 
Try feeding a light colored rat and is she still won't eat try a darker colored one. If you are feeding rats, try something else like a hamster, or a large gerbil or something. If you usually feed at night, try feeding during the day. If you normally feed frozen/thawed, try feeding live to spark her interest. I had to do that with my ball python, but after she ate I had no problems after. Good Luck.
 
Are you trying to feed frozen then thawed food items? if so try a live mouse/rat.Some balls tend to eat only live prey.Also, do you have two tight fighting hides? the snake might be a bit stressed so try taping black construction paper to all of the sides of her tank, leave her there for a week, then try to give her a live mouse/rat.
