Alright guys, I tried the scenting and feeding in the enclosure. He still did not eat after having the mouse in the enclosure all night. Now should I try braining or just go straight to a live pinky instead? And if live route, the place that has live atm said the pinkies they currently have, have some fuzz on them but only slightly bigger than a non fuzz pinky. Will it be too big for my Apache, or should he be able to eat it? Most recent pic of him for size reference below.

I would go ahead with the size they have because I am sure he won’t have any problems with it and he needs to eat……
Let us know what happens…….

Hooray @aliohara15! You might need to feed him a few more live to get something in his belly and then attempt ft. The goal is to put some calories in him no matter how you have to do it……

I’m in a similar spot with one of my sand boas. I bought her as established eating f/t, but she wouldn’t eat for me. I eventually got a live pinky which she ate, but now I’m struggling to get her to eat frozen. I tried all of the methods mentioned above (except scenting) and more, none of which worked.
