Today was the first time i attempted to feed my female BP a small rat.And i have to say she was quite disinterested in this new meal..She just completed a complete shed two days ago and hasnt fed for 8 days.by ,the way i have only fed frozen/thawed food.up until today she would take 2 full grown mice every 5 to 7 days.shes a few inches shy of 3 feet with the girth to handle a small rat.Is there a secret to making this switch in food or do i continue feeding multiple mice for awhile longerr,any ideas and opinions would be greatly appreciated... thanks to all
