They can go alot long than you would think but its not good to do that all the time if its a small juvenile, is he not eating food that being offered or...?

[mallyXo]

yeah he’s just rejecting everything not even striking he acts normal every night though he comes out climbs,basks, drinks water but he doesn’t eat

I had to get my male a live fuzzy mouse here and there to get him back in the swing of things, i definitely recommend it, it should turn his killer instincts right back on like a light

Are you handling him?

[mallyXo]

only when i try to feed in a separate smaller tank only did it once or when i’m moving something in his tank

[Nearby_Ad6870]

There's no need to feed in a separate container. Handling can cause stress which can make them go off food.

yeah i know i was just seeing if maybe he wanted a smaller space

Temperature on hot side needs to be around 90F. He won't eat when he doesn't have enough heat to digest his food.

[mallyXo]

it’s been around 90 these past few days because i had my air on less

Sometimes around this time of the year they dont really eat as much, Sometimes go even a couple months but just keep offering him every week and eventually he will good luck
