Another Burm Feeding Question

Hey Guys..
I have had this little guy for about 8 months. I was told he was eating 5 lb rabbits at the time. I have jumbo rats that I feed my 8 ft. female, so I fed him as many as he would eat every couple of weeks. (I don't power feed my snakes). As we all know the price of jumbo rats is crazy, I have started breeding my own rabbits. He has eaten 2 so far, but really shows not much interest in them until he is really hungry. He'll go at least a month or 2 before he shows any interest. I want him on rabbits as the female is now takin them without hesitation. I have a few rats left and will get him to finish those off first but then want him on Rabbits only. I tried the blood on the head and heating it up, still no interest. ( I heat up the rats and he takes them right away). I think he may have been eating live? Is it normal for them to wait that long before feeding? All my other burms have never refused a meal at any time. This guy seems picky. Anyone gone thru this? I would like to hear your views... Thanks...

Hear is a pic of him.... Looks healthy to me...








Thanks Again...
