HELP! my bp wont eat!!!

[clovely]

hello everyone, I got my bp about 5 months ago and he has yet to eat from me. I hate to admit but I don't believe I asked about his age, but if i had to guess id say about one or two years old based off of videos and pictures i've seen of bp these ages. At first I freaked out, but then realized they can go for a while without eating, but its been a while now and I feel like he's pretty young so I'm worried. I've tried all sorts of mice, hopper, pinky, to fuzzy. I've dipped them in chicken broth and have had some where they were bloody and nothing arouses him. I've seen him slither right over it. PLEASE HELP !! any and all suggestions are welcome ! this is my first bp, so please help a fearful mama! thank you for your time.

Have you tried live. Can you post a pic of your snake

A photo of your snake and the enclosure would help a lot, it may be that your setup is not right. What are your temperatures and humidity? What kind of substrate? It's best to try to feed them late at night before you go to bed since they are nocturnal. Chicken broth? I never heard of that one LOL. Are you using frozen thawed? How do you heat them up? Do you refreeze or toss them out? You should try to get a weight of your snake in grams, they tend to fast around the 1000 gram mark.

My first guess would be that it's husbandry related. Tell us about your setup, the more you tell us, the more we can help you out.

What type/size enclosure are you using?
How are you heating the enclosure? Is your heat regulated by a thermostat?
How and where are you measuring temps? Humidity?
What are your temps? Humidity?
What are you providing for hides, clutter and privacy for the snake?

Pics would help.

Also, mice of any size besides adult mice are way too small for your snake.
So let's tackle that next...
oh, and chicken broth?????
