Refused his squeaker ~,~

[Gintha]

So I tried to feed Hunter yesterday (11 days after last meal, store ran out of mice >=[ ) and he refused it.. he picked it up a few times and stared at it.. and played with it. I left him alone with it over night and still he didn't eat. Never had a snake refuse food cept when ready to shed, and he doesn't show any signs of shedding. He is really stressed right now (just started trying to hold him a few days ago) should I wait a few more days and try again? or wait till his normal feeding day to try? (yes I know theres prolly 50 posts on here like this, but honestly I did try the search function and all I could find was stuff about hatchlings, hes a 2003)

I would just wait until the next time to feed him (ie. a week) and offer again. We had a snake do that, and for no good reason. Just wasnt intrested. I wouldnt take it to heart (though its tough as hell not to worry) he will probably eat next week :D

Well... I got him to eat... 2 small fuzzies. All was going great.. until.. I went to check on him like normal and I found his tail stuck to one of the old glue on thermometers, I got him free and put him in his feeding cup while I cleaned the stupid glue off the tank. I went to get him to put him back in the viv and picked up the tub in time to see 2 mice sliding OUT of his mouth ~,~ Guess I wait 10 days and try again *cries* poor little guy.
