    I tried what my mom said but he still didn't eat it so I left the mouse in his cage over night and so, now, for the third time he's refused food. Now I'm getting super nervous, I know that bps can go for a long time without food but Link is still really young.

    How long have you left him alone without trying to feed him, and how old is he?

    I don't know exactly. He's not a year. And yeah, I've tried leaving him in the box and in his cage with the mouse.

    It's still probably just the seasonal thing. I'd change my feeding schedule if I were you.

    I wait a week in between each.
    And it was a f/t mouse. I'm planning on fresh killed next try.
