    Food problems

    So a little more then 3 weeks ago I got a pied female who was on live mice, 2 days after she was home I gave her a frozen rat and left it in her hide and she ate it within 10 minutes then i tried feeding 4 days later she never took it then a week later offered again didn't take it then the week after that I offered live mouse she paid no attention . the temps on the cold side or about 78 the middle is 80-85 hot side is 92 she has moss in her hide to help with higher humidity it averages about 45-65% everywhere else in the tank. She is in a 20 long and is 210 grams . the tank is full 2 hides a humid hide a water bowl extra hides are for comfort I don't want her scared of the tank .. What should I do keep offering live or frozen / mice or rats , I have over 100 of each type frozen so it doesn't matter to me what she eats. I would prefer rats though . any suggestions on what I should do how often I should offer food and I forgot to add the only time she is handled is when I spot check , change the moss and other then that I am in her tank daily misting in the afternoom
