Also - try the "chicken soup" method in one of the posts below... that might get him more interested.

Also - one of my boas will not take a WET frozen/thawed rat. He only likes them dry and very warm, so that takes some extra preparation - putting the rat in a sealed plastic bag into hot water, and then offering it. Perhaps the rat retains more of its smell that way, but it's the only way he will eat F/T.
