A friend of mine has a ball python it's been a fussy eater from the beginning but now it's completely off its food, it's a male around 1kg mark, any ideas why it might be he tries him weekly with food?

because its what royals do, especially males around that weight. Is nothing to worry about these slugs are designed to go extended periods without food. Just keep an eye on the weight so isht losing weight quickly.

I have a slug that only just ate its first meal in 6 months :D

When his snake was eating it would only ever eat a small meal like a medium mouse or a small which is kind of odd as his other ones would try eat you if you stood still long enough :p
