OK...they may not "have to eat live", but they are more likely to eat live. Get a live fuzzy mouse, put your snake in a 6 qt tub on Aspen bedding (100% must)and try and feed it at night. This will usually work if the temps are good. Since this snake is refusing f/t, you need to get it eating well before switching it back. Your best chance for that is to feed it live.![]()
