BCS,

Thank you for the response.

I usually feed him live rats or mice, sometimes hamsters. Come to think of it, I think his last meal was a hamster. But since this is rare, I'm going to say yes I have been feeding him a new type of food. It really just depends. If I find he doesn't like one, I'll go for the other. At this point, he is rejecting the rats and mice, but I haven't tried a hamster again....

I thought it took males 3 years to become an adult and reach sexual maturity.. thanks for that.

I usually feed him in his enclosure, when I find a good warm temperature in the tank and I see him engaging in the predatory behavior of having only his head out of his hide lying in wait. I've also tried to place him in the enclosure in which I keep his food, currently a mouse. He has also rejected that. At the moment I am trying once every week to get him to eat.
