    I would leave it in. Check when you get home and if it is still there, remove it. By the way, nice username

    What I do to get my little bino eating (and all of my other snakes) is heat the rat up with a hairdryer on a low setting (so the rat doesn't cook) for 15 minutes or until the room is prescented pretty well and little snake heads are sticking out of hides looking for food. He eats every 4-5 days without fail, and his feeding response is nice and strong. Works like a charm

    my albino girl is a pain in the butt, she eats every two weeks and she'll only eat mice. Shes 400 grams and could take a small rat but she wont.
