But I am comforted by the fact that you said it may be a normal thing for him during mating season. We do have female BPs in the house. One is still young but one is just two months older than him and has been feeding and very active. Maybe he knows she has been cruising around.
Do the female BPs live nearby? (in the same room?) I wouldn't try to change from feeding mice for quite a while now. Wait until he's feeding very regularly first.
