So I'm wondering if I should keep trying frozen/thawed or just get him a live small adult mouse like he was eating for the breeder. I also just got a scale so I haven't had a chance to weigh him and check if he's losing weight.
I'd keep trying frozen thawed, what temp are you getting them too before you offer it? Also if it's eating adult mice I wouldn't call it a hatchling anymore, it's more than likely a juvenile at this point. I've found males to be more difficult when it comes to feeding unfortunately but rest assured that if your snake is actually hungry they will not reject food frozen thawed or live, they will eat.
