Female takes food like a champ even when she's in blue but the male has skipped his last two meals. He'll crawl out of his hide when I open the top but the moment I dangle the food near him he strikes at it like he's afraid of it. Any calmness goes out of the window.
I've tried leaving it overnight and he just lets it lay there.
Gyg you make a good point on handling! I've been consistent (consistently rare) aside from the time that I was sick. Is it possible just that time threw him off?
Thank you too! I feel much better now but it was a tough time

when you lay it out over night, do you split the head of the mouse?
This trick works for lots of people, try spliting the head open of the mouse, just a little and leave it over night. Hope this helps
