I bought a baby BP on June 28 that was four days old. Had not shed or eaten yet. He shed on July 4, and finally decided to eat on July 17. I handled him a few times in between, but not a lot. I have kept in contact with the breeder I got him from. With one exception, the entire clutch wasn't hungry until the week of the 17th. Some clutches' yolks just last them longer than others. Don't stress about it. They will eat when they get hungry. I wouldn't start to worry till a couple of months have passed, or he is losing a lot of weight.
