have a male regular, about 4 years old now. always fed him FT rats with a live one every few months. always ate them no problem once a week.

had been in a tank that was getting to be much too small for him and got a bigger one to hit him about 6 months ago. he has hardly eaten even once since then. all the hides and everything are the same. im sure its pretty stressful but what can i do about it??

my method has always been to thaw in warm water then use a blow drier for 30 sec or so next to the cage to get the smell going and his attention. he still pops right out of the hide within seconds and gets into a strike position. but when i present the rat he will just sort of sniff and poke at it then sort of loose interest after a few minutes...

tried the broth thing...
