Need advice BP

I got a 430g male bp on March 26th. The guy I got him from told me that they had him on live mice. Ive tried feeding him a live mouse every week since getting him and he hasn't fed at all. He just had his first shed with me and it came off in one peace. I figured he would eat after he shed for sure but he refused that meal too.Any ideas?

Can you describe your husbandry? What size mice?
Are you feeding in the enclosure?

New exact set up description and temps for sure. For young balls the most simple reason for non feeds are wrong set ups or temps.

I am feeding in the enclosure. Husbandry is as follows; 10 gal tank with only the front exposed, an uth and heat lamp connected to a thermostat, hot side 90 cold side 77 checked with a temp gun. Humidity ranges 40-60 %. Two identical hides and a waterbowl. Mice range anywhere from 36g to 42g. Bp currently weighs 430g

Try a rat pup. Get one that still has its eyes closed, so you can leave it in there without worry of it harming your snake. Put it in and either cover the tank, or leave the room. I would bet before long it is gone. I would just leave him alone, in the dark if need be, and see what happens. Good luck. :)
