Dosnt strike or constrict his food

hey everyone, i have a 250 gram bp hes doin great he always ate very good. feed frozen thaw. I dangle it in his tank and he usually strikes and constricts then eats it fine. Lately he only eats it if its very still and does not strick or constrict, also if i drop it in the tank he wont eat it. Please help

I have 2 that are shy eaters. I just lay the rat (FT of course) by its hide and within 30 minutes they eat. No constricting, nothing.

id also say make sure ur feeding it the correct size, if in doubt try a smaller size just in case they think its too big! if it goes down great u got something in them!! i know everyone wants to get them fatter with bigger items! but a small meal is a meal! :)

I am a stickler for the 10%-15% rule and weigh all my feeders beforehand.
