'Ello everyone!

I don't know if any of you have seen anything like this before, but it's...different. I’m trying to feed my bp, but he's acting really weird about it. He seems interested in the mice, but all he's doing is striking at them, grabbing them, then letting them go, and repeating the process. In the mean time the mice are going crazy and jumping up and down and hitting the top of his cage ( I have a separate one to feed him in) and they're jumping all over him. I took one out but the same thing is still happening. Am I at a lose cause for feeding him, or is he just playing with his food?
