How to switch from live to f/t
My baby ball python refuses to eat frozen thawed mice. I've tried doing the "zombie dance", I always heat it up with hot water/a hairdryer, I've tried braining, I've tried leaving it overnight in a hide. He didn't even look at it(okay, he probably did, but you get my point) On the other hand, when I offer a live hopper/fuzzy, he takes it within five seconds. I don't really know what to do with him, I don't want him to get bitten, and f/t is better costwise as well.
Just in case, heres some additional information:
He lives in a sterilite tub with paper-towel/aspen substrate, the humidity is 60-66 at all times, the temperatures are 91 degrees on the warm side and 80 degrees on the cool side. There's a hide on each side, and a water dish in the center. There are no signs of mites, scale rot/burns, or RI. If any more information is needed, please let me know.
Also, I understand that this question has been asked many, many times before, but all of them pretty much say to wiggle the feeder and warm it up, which I've tried.
