    As for feeding is every 7 days ok? And is he doesn't take can the rat pup or mouse be refrozen?
    If he's young, anything from 4 or 5 days to 7 days should work. They grow a little faster if you feed them more often, but as long as the food is big enough, 7 days will work if that's more convenient for you.

    Some people refreeze if the meal is refused. I do not. I think once the body starts breaking down and bacteria start forming and processing things in the warm corpse, it's better to just toss it and try again with a new one next time.
