My 5 year old corn snake askook will not eat!!!

its been around 5 week now it is very cold outside i know that this can affect them even if the temp in the viv dosent change. but im still worried that hes not eating.

if anyone has any suggestions on how to get him eating please comment.

i have tried braning befor
 
What are the temps in the tank and you're feeding him dead mice, right?

its around 20-25C (70-75f? i think)
he has a heat mat on at night and a basking bulb on in the moring but hes not showing any signs of being to hot he also has a cooler area he can always go in


yeah he has always been on dead mice
 
Have you tried changing to rats? Some snakes can be very picky. My ball python will eat rats and the another feeding refuses a rat and takes 2 mice.
 
I have heard that snakes love gerbils and african soft-furred rats. Both of those are illegal in Cali so I've never used them but if they are available where you are it might be an option.

Maybe warming up a bit would be helpful - to 80ish?
