its most likely because of one of two things:
1 - its getting into breeding season and many males will fast
2 - you're over feeding him
I personaly think its the breeding season so they go off there meal , but its nothing to worry about also i would feed one ex large mouse instead of two large mice and you can feed him every 7 - 14days . But dont worry about him not eating for couple of weeks snakes can go long time with out a feed . Keep us posted how things get on .
At least 10 days for xl mice, though I would recommend 14 as a safe minimum. |

1 large/exbreader mouse every 12-20days for a fully grown corn should be fine |

they are fully grown mice, feeding two once a week, he use to take two mice no problem, then he would only take one now he doesn't want any, he is drinking and is still active????? |

Remember males normally go off there food in winter. My snow corn has gone off his food for the time being but he is still active and drinking water so all is good . |

what size mice? how often are you feeding? doubt there is any need for a vet just yet |
