I recently caught a sidewinder from the palm springs area. I've tried to feed it twice with fuzzy mice,but not interested. The cage is kept around 75-85 degrees. Any ideas to acclimate it to captive life?

First, I'm curios where was he caught?
Second Are they F/T F/K or live?
Try getting fresh or live hoppers/pinkies(unlees the snake is to small)
Also, let him calm down and get acclimited etc.
Otherwise maybe you should try some different prey. Lizards or what ever else would come from the area he was captured.
