    Good luck! I recommend using the hairdryer trick, which is to blow the head of the f/t with a hairdryer for about 30 seconds before you offer it. It's how I got Firnen to eat today :)

    Didn't you just get the snake 2 days ago and it was due to be fed on Thursday? I'm confused

    Yes, but some suggested that I should feed him every five days.

    No it doesn't matter which end. Your snake might be special if he keeps eating backward however :P

    I did, he sensed the food and look at my hand at first, so, I closed the caged to do the hair dryer method it worked! :)

    Lol, Axel is eating it from the side, I guess he'll figure it out? He has never eaten a medium mouse before, btw, the stores that I went to had no Rat Fuzzies today.
