hello everyone I need your help please on a carpet phyton
All seven of my snakes were live feeders only when I got them, four of them being Carpets. Previous owners swore up and down that they would only eat live. They all eat frozen now.
I believe that skipping a feeding attributed greatly to my success.

The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

When I got my BRB I was told the same thing. He has been eating F/T for a good time now. I think some just don't do it right.

I agree with both the above posts. WAIT IT OUT and your snake will eat.
I have a 2.5 year old coastal mutt/mix that has taken a 1 pound F/T rabbit. You don't have to get hung up on one type of prey. I have found quail will be taken with great vigor by stubborn eaters and you could scent the F/T rat with quail to keep the rat streak going.
Give it time and you will see the conversion.
