As far as offering them food, just try every other week and use a smaller size then they would normally eat. Also use very warm water to heat them and it may provoke a response. Good luck
Okay, whew. Deep breaths. I feel a bit better. I'll keep offering mice and I've been using warm water to thaw them. I definitely want him fat and sassy before I start pairing. Thank you!

Yeah, it's just nerve-wracking! No, the male is in a 10gal tank and the female in a 30gal, different rooms. I haven't changed anything since they were eating well, but I wonder if it's time to move them to bigger enclosures.
