I am actually going to be trying f.t tonight, wish me luck!!

But this is what I am going to do. Take the frozen mouse and stick it in a DOUBLE SEALED zip lock bag, make sure you squeeze all the air out th bag before sealing. Find a small container, (I use a won-ton soup container)and fill it with really hot water, place the zip lock with the mouse inside of it. Wait 15 min, and replace the water with new hot water. Wait anoter 15 min, and remove mouse from bag. It should be pretty much completely dry, at this point I just put the mouse under a heat light for about 30 seconds before I offer.

This in my opinion is probably the best way for a picky f.t eater to get the idea. I always would just throw mine directly in water as well and mine would hide there heads from it. I think snakes that are really used to eating live are a little more picky in how the f.t is offered, and NEED to be offered dry prey first. I was only able to get mine to eat f.t once, and this is how I did it. I have just been lazy lately, but now I have 5 snakes and it would make sense to me to convert. Good luck!!

P.S Invest in some Hemostats!! Tongs are big and bulky, hemo's are very thin and don't interfere. And when your offering make sure you grab the scruff of the neck, and wiggle it as if it really scurrying across the floor.
