They didnt seem too stressed out by the mice, the mice just dug underneath the waterbowl and stayed there. I wasnt worried about the mice, I always put food in the cage for the mouse so they wouldnt be compelled to bite on the snake. Seems like the mice naturally knew to stay away from the snake.

This post is now useless! As I am glad to say, both are now feeding. I thought the mice I was giving them were big enough seeing how my corn snake is just as thick as them and eats the mice. My bro being as kind as he is, which is odd, put a medium sized rat in the cage with out my knowledge. To my surprise, she ate it pretty fast, I came home surprised to see a big lump in my snake's body.
My male is thinner than the female, so I got a small rat, and yup, not 10 minutes went by before he ate it. I started to think maybe they saw the mice and they were too small to even be prey. I think the smell of the rats had something to do with it as well.

Thanks to everybody that helped me, I appreciate it a lot!
