Well I just got my first bp a few days ago (Sunday) from a petsmart as a gift. The lady at the store gave me the snakes feeding chart etc. it gets fed each Monday, problem is, it hasn't eaten anything offered since before dec 3 when the store got it. I know bp's go through off feelings, but I'm worried because it hasn't eaten in so long. The snake seems fine, not skinny at all. I'm not too worried in general, but I really would like to see the snake eat during the 14 day guarantee that the store provides. So far the snake has seemed interested, but not gone after the frozen thawed mouse. I tried wiggling it with tongs for about 5-10 mins, then left it in over night, and nothing.

Hes in a temporary plastic bin till he's eating well. Heat pad under the tank, paper towel substrate for now till eating, warm and cool hides, water dish, and a humid hide(plastic bowl thing with a hole in the lid filled with moist peat moss) and some fake plants.

Should i I try feeding in a smaller tank? Could I try leaving another mouse overnight possibly in his hide tonight, or is it better just to wait till next week? Should I be turning off the heat mat at night, or should I leave it on? (I have been leaving it on because my room a bit cool). And most importantly, what are some things I can do to help get my snake to eat?
