If you want your BP to feed with more consistency i would recommend to feed smaller size prey like a small rat (4 weeks old)

If your BP is fasting to catch up due to the size prey that were previously fed, it might take some time and as long as your BP does not lose weight he will be ok and resume feeding when ready.

In the mean time,

Check your temperature and make sure they are 80-84 on the cool side, 90-94 on the warm side, of course this mean you need to have an accurate reading provided by a digital thermometer/hydrometer

Check your humidity and make sure it is between 50%-60%

Make sure the enclosure is in a low traffic area.

Make sure your enclosure is the appropriated size, an enclosure that is too big can be overwhelming, and can cause stress overtime.

Make sure your hides are tight enough so your BP can snug in, all sides must be touching your BP's body (Avoid log hides as they do not really provide enough security for a BP).

If you handle your BP often, try to limit handling.
