New royal housing 18" viv ok? Shy inactive , scared of rat ?

If it were me I would wait until is takes a rat. Your snake has been through a lot getting a new owner and home so let him relax and learn his new place is calm and secure.

Right will do... Thanks

Great set up! Where did you get the viv?

Nice set up. Something I noticed the last couple of feedings - using tongs, when I dangle the rat by its tail the 11-month old snake will look at it, sniff it, put head right up to it...and do nothing, like it doesn't even recognize it as food. But when I re-orient the rat so that it is horizontal with the head facing the snake, it goes into feeding mode, winds up and strikes.

One other tip is to wave or move the rat all through the enclosure to get the scent spread around and induce a feeding response.
