Here's an interesting twist. My female BP, Ella is 2 1/2 years old now. She was adopted from a rescue group last year. She had been fed LIVE rodents while with her original owner the whole time they had her. The rescue group switched her to F/T when she was turned in to them (and they said she switched easily). When I adopted her, she was slamming f/t and never missed a meal. She was a real piggy!
Then in October, she began refusing periodically until December when she went off feed altogether (gotta love sexual maturity, lol). Mid January, I began offering her LIVE to pique her interest in eating again. She occasionally would take one, but not consistantly. She ate live off and on through the end of April when she shed. The next night I decided to offer F/T on a whim. She positively SLAMMED it. She ate 2 f/t that night. And she's eaten f/t every week since, slamming each feeding. I have my piggy back.
So, I personally have not had any trouble switching from f/t to live and back again.....
