Hello,


I have a bit of an odd case, which I still feel that I’m missing something. I have owned this ball python for almost 3 years and I have been feeding her f/t rats consistently with no problems up until this year which she suddenly stopped eating, it was 3 long months of me trying to figure what was wrong and adjusting her husbandry and I even took her to a herp vet because I thought she was stargazing, they told me nothing was wrong. I then heard that switching from rats to mice or vice Versa helps so I tried feeding her a mouse after three months of no eating and she ate it! I was so happy but then when I started offering her rats again (that were similar sizes to the mouse) she refused, I then gave her another mouse and she ate it. I don’t know why, she’s never had mice before with me and now that’s the only thing she’ll eat.




Does anyone have any explanations?
Also how do I get her to eat rats again??
