Is he new? My little 6 week old girl ate 1 fuzzy mouse sunday and 2 yesterday but I got her black Friday and I want to try and fatten her up a little as she is on the thin side and didn't want to eat in the pet shop. I would say if it a new animal and it wants to eat, let it eat till you fatten it up a little and get it healthy, then after a month, I would put it on a regular feeding schedule like one appropriate sized feeder every 3-5 days if its a baby, 7 days if its a juvenile or 7-10 days if its an adult. My red tail boa destroys her cage when she is hungry and this little BP does the same. After 3 fuzzies, she is nice and quiet in her hide. Just my 0.02.
