provided the temp/humidity are correct and hot and cold side hides are provided, i would give him another week or so then try to feed him again. try to feed him a rat pup if possible, if that doesnt work then offer mouse scented rat pup, last option is the fuzzie. (personally i think it is better to get them switched to rats sooner than later). i would resist to tempation to pick him up....it stresses him out. let him be for a week....i bet it will be ok.

p.s. i never claimed to be a pro, just what has worked for me, and im sure some others as well.
