I found with my young albino when he wouldn't eat for me at first...that he liked to eat in the middle of the night. You could try putting some pinky pieces on a dish for him on a paper towel under his hide like I told you and try leaving it overnight. It can be risky because of the possibility of ingesting substrate...but he might come out and eat at night. What kind of substrate are you using?
When I say long time snake owners I just mean people on this forum who have had snakes longer then me, because no one on this site has mentioned about having too much isolation I figured it wouldn't be a problem.

I tried leaving it over night too and still nothing. I use aspen bedding.

He goes in his coconut hide the most so I put the pinkie parts in the dish on a paper towel in that hide, I made sure there's enough room for him to go into the coconut hide even if he didn't want to eat but he hasn't been in it at all and is just burrowing even though he has two other hides and a silk plant to go in/under.
