get him on rats ASAP. Just find one thats about the same size as the adult mouse.....You don't want a 4ft BP that only eats mice!

lol true..do you know the best way to convert him? They told me to rub a rat with a mouse..should i defrost them both and litterally just rub them together? is there anything else i can try aswell?

Congrats on him eating for you again 
As for converting -- before you start trying any tricks, honestly just defrost a rat and see what happens. LOL... I didn't have any problems at all with my bp, he took rats as soon as I offered them to him -- no scenting or anything required. Give it a shot If you try with a rat a couple of times and don't have any luck, then you can try scenting etc...

Yeah, mine had no trouble going from mice to rats. But tell us how it goes now when u try a rat If it doesnt work then u might have to try the "rubbin' trick" GOOD LUCK!!!
