Don't worry to much about when your corn eats. my male in the winter time does not eat for over 2 months from the beging of December to the end of January but I give him 11 hrs of light and it is cooler in the basement he finally decided to start eating again on the 4th of Feb. and he ate two adult mice. corns will eat when they are hungary and if the y feel they are safe, and healthy. so check out their surroundings if young they might need a darker and quieter eating enviroment, if older, mist down their encloser 10 to 20 min. with hot to warm water before feeding, and if concerns are more check for mouth infections or other illnesses or injuries. Hope this helps. keep in touch.
