Picky eater...

Anyone else have BP that is a really picky eater? I can't get my male to eat anything but mice, and even then he turns his nose at them if they arn't the size he wants. I've tried all different types of tricks to get him to go for rat hoppers and no go. The funny thing is I cant even get him to eat 2 mice in a row. Only one at a time. Just wanted to see if anyone else here has the same issues. :rolleye2:

My male would only take a frozen rat when I had him a glass tank and I had to make sure it was super warm and I really had to make it seem alive. Now that I've switched him to a tub he absolutely refuses to take a frozen rat because I can't leave the top off without him trying to escape and he isn't interested in frozen whatsoever. So I've had to resort to feed live again, I don't really mind but I get really nervous and have to watch until it's dead because I'm afraid of my snakes getting hurt. Now he's eating like a horse and gaining weight rapidly.


Maybe you could try switching enclosures?
