I think I can help you out here, since I had the same problem with my young bredli.
It is *definitely* the jump to the larger cage. At 6 months, some bredli are still extremely nervous feeders. I would keep your juvenile in the tupperware container (or, if necessary, a *slightly* larger one) until it is eating regularly. At feeding time (preferably just before you go to bed,) leave a f/t rodent in the tupperware container with the snake, turn off the lights, and leave the room. Check to see if it's there the next day. If yes, remove it, and try again in a week.
I'm confident it will start to eat if you follow this procedure, as it worked for two of my problem feeders.
