My BP is being a jerk...

[GotBalls?]

Well first off my bp hasn't eaten since December 7th.

But he is making it incredibly hard to feed him.

He is extremely active and is almost always out of his hide. He will only eat if he is in his hide so I have been fidning it really difficult to time feeding him. i will see him in hsi hide so I will go dethaw the rat and as soon as it is ready he is out and about again!

My next problem is.. if i DO catch him in his hide and try feeding him... he totally ignores the rat and just tries to come out of his enclosure as soon as the lid is open. He spends all his time in his enclosure looking for a way out and as soon as I open it he is on his way out...

what the heck is up with him? Why does he want out so bad? I have stopped handling him until he eats as he really seems to like to come out and explore and he needs to eat!... I dont want to have to try live feeding.. but what the heck else can I do.. he is being such a little jerk! LOL

Any ideas?
