hey

you might wanna consider soaking the snake for 15 mins twice a day to re hydrate it as a weak/sick snake will not drink. if you do take it to a vet which i reccomend (even if it is not a reptile vet) it would be worth getting a faecal smear done to check for parasites. i also would not reccomend live unless it shows absolutely no interest in dead and also force feedign can be very stressful on the snake if it has not deteriorated i would yes keep the soakigns goign and keep it at about 31 degrees and then offer food in a week or so when it has settled.
