I have noticed a few members here and there who are listed as being from NS, Canada. I am wondering if you know any reliable suppliers for natal rats. I sent out a few inquiries yesterday and today to potential sources but I haven't had any concrete responses yet.

I am thinking to switch over my ball (I'm sure anyone who's come across my postings have seen me yammering on about his bad eating habits) but I am worried about availability since I can't see him readily taking rats or mice again if I choose to switch over. Right now he hasn't eaten for 11 months so I'm just about ready to try anything!

I guess, more generally, it would also be interesting to hear what people think about the possible idea that my BP just "doesn't like" rats anymore? I've never fed him anything other than rats or mice previously so might trying soft fur rats help my problem? Or might I just be creating a bigger problem for myself by accustoming an already fussy snake to a specific prey item?
