I give up

What temperature is the food? My Jungle Jag and Zebra are always stalking and will grab anything I put in front of them, but my Green Tree Python and Rainbow Boa like their stuff around real body temperature. I'll usually thaw the stuff out without much attention to temperature and present to each of my snakes. But if my GTP and Rainbow just sniff around it and give it some flicks of the tongue without taking it, I'll check the temp and then bring it up to high 90s (in a ziplock bag in warm water). They'll take it every time at "live temperature" after refusing just minutes earlier.

I put the rat under a che for a couple of minutes to bring the temperature up and being that up until recently I was having to drop feed her I wouldn't think this was the problem. I think she was just being a butt head so we'll see if a little extra hunger helps next cycle.

With my first jungle carpet python i had i was worried it would get addicted i guess you could say to mice so i defrosted the rat in a different pot, But she refused it so I defrosted the rat in the same pot as the mice and she hasn't refused since :)

(I don't read all the comments so if i repeated something or you have fixed it soz and good job)
