    Your set up sounds good. Glad to hear you have a T-stat.

    If he's rejecting e/o feeding anyway, I definitely wouldn't offer a smaller size prey item. Just continue what you are doing - he will eat when he's hungry. I would consider ordering some f/t rats online if you can't get any locally. Maybe the change will jump-start his feeding response. You could also try rubbing the prey item with some tuna juice to see if that helps, but I wouldn't worry too much right now since he is still eating for you on a regular basis - just not the one you think he should be (darn snakes!).

    My best advice?

    Patience, patience, patience!

    Best of luck!
