This is not necessarily true. I have some in my collection who will switch back and forth between live and ft no problem. Perhaps they are the exception and not the rule. When a snake has been off feed for a long time, sometimes offering a few live can get them spurred on and started eating again.

In my experience, the rats don't really "scream" too long. All I get is a few little squeaks and its all over. They are very efficient predators...it's usually over and done with in about a minute, even when their strike is less than accurate.

Hey Super, my Memphis ate tonight for the first time since November.:banana::banana::banana: It was an aggravating 8 months but like everyone keeps saying, it takes some patience...

Yep....recently broke a 7 month fast here and what a relief!
