Hey all just an update..
He didn't eat the second week either so i got the feeling his enclosure was too large. I decided to switch from a 10g glass tank to a 6qt tub and i let him hang for another week. I tried feeding him again today..defrosted the rat and left it by the tub for a half hour. He was really active then went into his hide and thats when i dipped the prey in 135F water. Brought it right over on tongs and he nailed the head in seconds! Very happy now and glad i made the switch to a tub
Feed evenings as they're nocturnal , wait until they're settled a while under a hide ( they're more secure ) then dangle a WARM rat/mouse in front of the hide entrance.. BOOM !
I use a hairdryer to warm the rat/mouse for convenience..
