I brought mine home and it ate immediately the first time and two subsequent times - i put it in a glass 10-gallon tanki with a heat lamp on it - I set the tank on the floor with a screen top. Mine just ate 'em up. However, last night, I had two people around, my husband and a friend, and he freaked out and wouldn't eat. I had just transferred his home to a larger aquarium, so I put the mouse in there (2 of them) overnight (after he refused to eat in the 10-gallon feed tank) and he ended up eating one of the 2 pinkies. I think they are very sensitive to change AND strangers - mine defense poops every time someone besides me comes around. I hold mine every day and feed him alone, with just him and me. I have taken pictures while he's eating and nothing seems to bother him. I'll let you know the next time I feed him if last night was a fluke. I have only had mine 2 weeks and have been desperate to get information!

Oh - also - I have been told by several people that they need high humidity. Well, I stopped doing that and he has been a different snake - I gave him more space, less humidity, and he has really been active, going all over, basking, moving, etc.
