Well, shoot.

If it's been a long time since it has eaten or if it has not eaten and it was born quite a while ago...they can be less able to digest anything but a small meal.

I would wait at about 3 days...then try taking a live pinky, pinch it's tail to get it squirming around, and but it in the hide with the snake.

If this works...give him only small meals for a few weeks before thinking of going back to fuzzies.

good luck.
