Well, when the baby balls first arrived, they were all on f/t, unfortunately, I did a dummy move and fed live, as at the time, it was easier. I have been feeding live since, because when I tried to feed f/t they would refuse. I'm having a hard time with space/time and keeping the right sized rodents around for the balls, and I've had to buy a lot of them from the petstore. Anyways, I did a quick check of the ball sections here and couldn't find stickies or anything on switching, so I figure I'll post and ask. Does anyone have any specific techniques or advice for getting them to eat the f/t again? I tried small rats and large mice to see if either one would get their attention better. I've also tried making the head of the prey warmer than the rest of the body (not sure where I heard this one), and I've tried doing the whole wiggle dance with the dead critters. I'd really rather not expose any brain matter or anything else gruesome like I've heard from someone before.
