Anyone else's do this?

Hvae you tried pre scenting? Leave the open bag with mouse contents near the enclosure and leave the room for 30 minutes. It usually gets the snake into feeding mode.

Tried it. A few times. >.<
She just doesn't take interest till I leave. Oh well, it's how she rolls..

I wish I knew what my BP did.. but she hasn't eaten for me yet... However my King doesn't coil on 1/2 the mice he gets LOL

Only one of mine (Toby) has eaten F/T thus far, and he doesn't strike or constrict them either. He just slithers up to the dead prey, looks at it for a second, and then gulps it down slowly. He usually eats live, since that's what my others get, and will strike/constrict with those - so I guess they do know the difference between dead & living food!

My new girl doesn't like being watched either, as her breeder told me when I got her... but we stayed in the room at her last feeding, just out of sight, and she went for it after a few. I did cover the tank halfway with a light cloth (old curtain), which seemed to help her feel more secure.
