No, unfortunately he hasn't. I tried a new born mouse pinkie yesterday. He didn't show any interest. I've never seen anything like it with a rat snake. Especially when he used to be such a good eater, like his clutch mate. I've given him a bit more of a temp. gradient and a moist hide(which he uses often) and I'm keeping my fingers crossed. He hasn't lost to much weight yet, although the female is starting to look quite a bit larger now. Like I told you in my email, I may try and brumate or at least cool him down for a couple months and hope for the best when he's warmed up. Snakes can be very stuborn, especially hatchlings, it's frustaiting. Thanks for the concern.
