My python won't eat anybody either. Maybe he is not hungry sometimes they can go for a month without eating. I have had 2 savanna monitors that wouldn't eat for almost 2 months. So no worries. Just check the usuals. Temp, humidity, or if it is getting ready to shed.

I answered your last question regarding this as well...he may be going into hybernation or if it was his first time shedding he could be stressed out from it also..in the future when the snake is shedding place them in warm water for relaxation purposes..also, wait about a week and try to feed him again..Good Luck

He may be going through a molt-ie shedding his skin. He may be too cool. Do you have a hot rock? Or some other sort of heat source. I don't have a lot of experience with reptiles but thats what I've heard.
Other than that contact a vet specializing in reptiles.

It is very common for ball pythons to not eat in winter it would be a great help though if you told us what kind of pyhton it is

Get a bigger python and feed it in the cage to make it nice and aggressive... :)
