Thanks everyone

The guy we bought him from told me he should be ready to eat this past Tuesday but then when I found poop Wednesday morning I figured that could have been a reason that he wasnt quite ready to eat the night before. I held off a few days and Im gonna try to feed again tonight. Gonna try a few tricks tonight. Please tell me what you all think of this. Ive got F/T that I will thaw out near his cage so he can get the scent and I was going to try in the later evening with as little light as possible so he feels more secure. Should I dangle the mouse in front of his hide or try and wait until he decides to be out and about? Thanks!
