My 3-year old corn, which shed over a week ago is refusing to feed. He also regurgitated his last meal, so it has been almost three weeks since he last ate. He is eating frozen, and has not had any trouble with eating except regurgitating. I have been offering food every night for 4 days. I'm kind of lost on what to do next. Does anybody have some advice? Thank you

You need to stop offering food every day. When you do that, the snake associates mice with something it doesn't want to eat and will start refusing mice.
It's a 3 year old snake---it's going to be fine without food for a few months. Leave it alone for a full week, double check your temperates and then try a smaller f/t prey item. If that doesn't work, wait a few more days and go to a local pet store and buy a live fuzzy. MOST snakes will not pass up a live fuzzy---it's like a treat to them.
