However...

How long have you had your bp?

Have you ever fed it before?

What is your set up like...temps etc?
I've had him for about a month now and have fed him successfully 5 out of 7 times. He's refused twice for the same reason...striking, missing, getting frustrated, and giving up. I'm keeping him in a 20 gallon tank with temps at 91 and 83. Humidity fluctuating between 50% and 55%.
