The pet store also doesn't have heat pads, hides, of correct humidity. I threw a huge fit after finding ticks and mites on her, and finding out what snakes really need to be comfortable and now i have to buy rats 40 miles away, but it was worth it to listen to her studder and try to tell me I was wrong, But thanks so much for all the help everybody!!
If it's easier, you could buy a bunch of rats at one time online frozen and have them shipped. It's not over expensive for the rats and shipping either.

To try for feeding issues, I would suggest putting her in a smaller enclosure. If she's a baby, go for a 10 gallon. If it's an adult, a 20 gallon would be fine. Just my suggestion though. :]
