Snake fed again after 8 weeks

After 8 weeks of being off food my adult male corn accepted a small fuzzy for dinner. Now I'm wondering if offering him an adult mouse was too much for him. The first and only other time he ate for me was immediately after his arrival and he was given an adult mouse. He is large enough in girth to consume this size. Should I just offer something a little larger each time until he is back to the large mice? Or continue with something smaller? Great to have a forum such as this as I learn something new each time I visit. Thanks to all those who take the time to reply.

It could be that he was "in the mood" for breeding. Males will go off food during breeding season. I would offer another smaller food item next time. If he eats it, then I would go ahead and try an adult mouse the next feeding after that.

Good luck!
