Feeding babies for first time...

Today I fed most of my baby boas as they've just finished their first shed.

No strikes, no real interest, so I just left them with a pinkie mouse in their enclosure (frozen/thawed). Its only been a short while, one of them has eaten, but the rest haven't even shown interest.

Is this normal, or does anyone have any suggestions??

Many thanks,
j.c.

..the ones that end up not eating after today, should i leave them alone for a few days, and try again, or should i try again right away??
