trouble feeding live

have you tried dangling the prey about 6 inches infront of her face? seems to work for me. i never just let the prey run around in the enclosure.

but the other members of the forum are right, unless your husbandry is right on the money, that could be a prob too .

has she always eaten live food? for my snakes that don't readily accept live i leave a freshly killed prey item right at the entrance to the hide box and turn all the lights off for the night. by the next morning more often than not it has been eaten. i find some snakes like it better that way than having a wild, dangling mouse/rat in their face. and while freshly killed it still has good enough temperature to entice them but it's not intimidating to them because it is motionless. and eventually they learn that they do not have to constrict it, they just start swallowing.

Hmm.. I'm not sure if it works as well with live prey, but did you try pre-scenting? Put the prey in a container with some kind of poked holes. Small card-board box, maybe a paper bag, or a plastic baggie. Again, have holes in the container so your snake can smell it easier and so the prey can breath. Put the container on top of the tank for 30 minutes. It may help your snake get into hunt mode.
