Re: New BP owner and I need some help.
Update: Tried feeding a live fuzzy mouse, he didn't even act interested in it at all. The mouse even was right up against him and even walked over him and he didn't even seem to care or react.

I had the same problem with my baby BP when we first got her she wouldn't eat white mice we tried different colors and switched to live and she eats every week tonight we started her on rats and she ate with no problems.So try colored fuzzies.If your temps and humidity is right it should eat.Good Luck.

I have that same log I got from PetSmart in my 20gal! My snake absolutely loves curling up in it and just so happened to be inside of it during feeding day. I had to stick the mouse in there using my tongs and he struck at it. I've heard of people using the same logs and said their bp's wouldn't come out for days on end and miss their feeding day. I guess it depends on the feeding response of the snake. Maybe try removing the log and replace it with another cave type.
