Any Ball Python Finicky mouse eater tactics?

I've had my female Pied for about two months and she recently stopped feeding two or three weeks ago. I wanted to know some different ways I can try feeding her and what works best for some of you? Thank you in advance. Btw she is 500 grams and about a year and a half old.

I'm assuming by the topic she was on adult mice?

Once I know this I'll answer more but I don't want to type something if I'm wrong from the get go.

Also have you ever fed her rats if she is on mice?

Yes she is an adult mouse eater and I try her o rats every once in a while, but its always the same reaction.

Same reaction as in she doesn't want to eat it, or she seems scared??? I'm not entirely sure what's going on. She eats mice sometimes, or she's not really eating period?

Typically mice do the trick. I do have some picky feeders though, that even mice don't always interest them. If she only eats mice, keep feeding them to her and try rats every so often. When she is eating, try to get her to eat several mice. I have a male that didn't eat anything but mice for 3 years and now all the sudden he eats rats, mice, live, or f/t. Very strange.
