God i feel horrible if this is the case.
    If you have a picture you could post, that would help more. Could be a little underweight or dehydrated. Whats your husbandry like? What are your warm and cool side temps as well as the humidity? If nothing else next time you feed him try offering two mice. Let him eat the first one completely and after you see him yawn to reset his jaw, offer him the second and see if he takes it. If the first was enough then he more then likely won't take the second. I would definitely recommend getting a decent gram scale though so you can keep track of his weight and make sure you are offering appropriate sized prey which most recommend to be 10-15% of his body weight.
