question about rats...
I have a male and female ball python, both eating small rats.
(well, the rats are big for 'small'... but the pet store has issues.)
Ok, so... the last time my guys ate was DEC 26th. I offered them
food on Jan 9th, and again last Friday, the 23rd.
They have just decided it's not time yet, and I know balls are sometimes
finicky.
Setup: (because I know someone's likely to ask) 
They're in a rack, in 30qt tubs, on aspen bedding, and each snake
has a hide. temps are 83 - 92, humidity is 56%, in BOTH tubs.
My question is this... until the snakes are ready to eat,
how can I keep two rats happy and healthy?
Right now I have them in a 10 gal tank, with a water bottle, food bowl
(with Kaytee rat food) and aspen bedding, with a small snake hide.
I also got them 2 'cheese chews', which I guess gives them
something to chew on that's good for them.
They may be food, but I want them to be comfy and happy until
the end.
