I bought my male hoggie on 27th July, i left it a week till i fed him, he took it & he ate every4 days till 19th August when he refused his pinkie, he has refused ever since, nothing has changed, temps are the same.
Can anyone give me any idea's as to why he isn't eating, he is only about 3/4 months old.

That's not a long gap in his feeding, to be honest. Mine has just gone for 3 months with no food, although he is a bit older than yours! Keep offering him food at regular intervals, keep an eye on his weight, but nothing to worry about just yet.
