Howdy.
I'm in a film class and we are currently doing experimental films. My film is about the juxtaposition of how gentle a snake is VS how the world see them. So I need a shot of my snake eating. HOWEVER. For some reason, my Hercules (9 year old male BP, 4 ft, 1.5 KG) has decided to take these past couple weeks to go on a hunger strike.

As the title suggests, I have recently switched him from 2 jumbo mice to juvenile rats. He took the first couple rats in the first couple weeks (1 a week) no problem, and swallowed them with relative ease, but now he has stopped eating. I'm not terribly worried about him not eating, I know it's not uncommon, but should I be spacing the feedings further apart so he has more time to digest? Or is he just not eating because he doesn't feel like eating? I feed F/T.

I also have the question of does anybody have an HD film of their 4-5 ft BP eating that they would be willing to let me use? It would have to be a rat
(preferably a white one with a brownish/grey face, but pure white is good too.) You would be in the credits, and I would upload the final film to Youtube for you to see. I would need the full strike and swallowing process. The angle of the shots aren't horribly important, just as long as you can see what is going on.

Thanks in advance for your help and suggestions.
