Well she got really fussy. It's not about the live thing .. I tried live rats, live multis, live gerbils .. .nothing .. only mice .. Having said that - she didn't eat for 6 weeks so maybe she just stopped being fussy in general and it has nothing to do with mice ...
Well I don't mind either way - it is a wild animal and they never live to a rule book
My Mexican Black Kingsnake would probably eat water if I could wiggle it
At least when you feed live and they refuse you don't waste them straight away ...
