Third Refused mouse, starting to freak out....

So would it be a bad Idea to feed it live or fresh killed if I plan on feeding F/T in the future?

I would take this opportunity to try switching to F/T.

Wait a week and by the time you offer up an F/T your BP should be hungry enough to eat it and forget about eating live.

:( Oh how many of these days Ive had... frustrating.... check ur husbandry... and is it time for a shed cycle?

We just went through this situation as well.. A bit different but pretty much the same. Our guy didn't eat for 5 and a half weeks when we first got him home.. I tried everything my go to guy said and even got some advice from peeps here.. What I ended up doing (because he was very skinny) was doing live mice for 5 feedings.. After the 5th live, he went into a shed cycle so we just left him alone until he was done and when he was out looking for food again, I dropped a f/t in there for him and he took it instantly! Haven't had any problems since other than one refusal and I'm quite sure that's because my son startled him.

Also, we are trying to get him to put on weight before winter hits because we are concerned that he may not eat so we are feeding every 4-5 days per advice from several people. He is doing great but if we attempt any sooner than 4 days, he will not take a mouse, lol. Everyone here gives really good advice so be sure to try some of the responses.. Everyone here has been a huge help to us! Good luck :)
