    Switching to F/T.
    Hey guys.

    Two of my Bp's. A Fire male, and a normal female don't wanna eat F/T rats or mice :mad:
    Do you have any ideas, or tips that could help me switch them.
    they'll eat live readily enough, but i can't get em to eat F/T!!

    Please help?

    How old r they? Try to use hari dryer make the ft rats warm. I mean warmer than live ones. It works for me. Also try with much smaller size first. And try to move away from them like the rat is running away.

    There are a couple threads up here on tricks to switching to f/t but it really is a case to case situation. I have 2 females that absolutely will only eat live. The others have eaten f/t from the start, so I haven't witnessed any tricks actually working myself, but search for f/t switch in the search bar and you should find those threads! Good luck
