Newly Acquired Male Spider BP Not Eating

I am not sure if I should be worried or not yet, but my male spider ball have not eaten since I brought him home. I acquired him Jan. 8, Sunday and I have tried to feed him however he hasn't even shown interest. He did have a nice poop on Monday, so I think he must have been fed recently. The temps, humidity and environment (two hide boxes on cool and hot side) are pretty close to the recommended stats. Is it just not time for him to be hungry yet? I don't remember what the breeder had been feeding him, but I tried to offer him f/t crawler mice. I even left it over night.

some snakes get stressed when they are moved into a new home even if they have optimal conditions. how close are the temps? And what is your heat source?

Even if everything is 100% perfect it will sometimes take a week or two until a new snake settles in and will be willing to eat.

I have a UTH and a electric heater that heats the room. Right now the ambient temp is 84* and 89* hot side. Should I be handling him at all or just leave him be for another week. I have been handling him, twice already.

If it makes you feel better when I got my female bumblebee she was real hesitant to eat. She went a week or two after I got her without eating. When she finally did, she was real catious and would take her hours to feel comfortable enough to grab her prey. Now...she is a beast. Never hesitates and rats dont stand a chance. Wait a week, let her settle and try again. If she still doesnt take try different things. FT, live, mice, rats etc.

leave it be for the next week and let it settle in. it will be hard not to want to handle it but it needs time to settle in. After about a week try another feeding

Leave him be. Try not to handle at all. Once he gets comfortable he will come out .at least a week. Then try to feed. If he eats put him back and leave him alone for a couple of days. If it won't eat leave him alone for another week and try again. Try to break him slowly with limited handling. Good luck.

Is the UTH regulated? If not it probably is too hot.

what is your humidity level? You might boost the warm side to a little above 90 degrees. Also does the snake have identical "good fitting" hides on both warm and cool sides?

Also just leave him alone at this point.

What is the cool side surface temp? 84 is fine for an air temp but 84 air and surface is a bit warm especially if it is a under 200gm snake they typically do not need to be as warm. If your cool surface temp is 84 you might reduce both ambient air and surface (the hardest to separate) down to 80. Many respected keepers recommend 88 hot side for young royals.

peace and quite are often needed leave it alone for a while before offering many say 7 days personally I have a number of snakes so on a feeding day if they seem interested I'll offer if not I don't bother and offer the next. In my experience they are usually eat in the first or second feeding day from arrival.
