I have had two baby boas that showed zero interest in food and would, like yours, actually turn away from the mice as if afraid of them. I was told to put them in a small paper bag with a live mouse too small to harm the snake and to leave it overnight. Every time I tried this the snakes fed fairly quickly without the need to leave them in the bag overnight. I don't know why it works but it does. I have tried putting them in other small containers (i.e. deli cups)with mice, with no results, but small brown paper bags have always done the trick.
