    problems eating

    so my older snake does not seem to like to eat i bought her about two months ago. but i put her in a separate container with a heating pad underneath and a hide spot this seemed to help, but this past feeding she ended up never eating the rat after almost an hour i do feed her a few hours after nightfall. the only real thing i can think of is that there is a chance the rats are a little too big where i live there is only one place that sell mice or rats within an hour and it's petco their mice and rats vary so much in size from week to week i can't really control exactly the size of rats she eats. does anyone have suggestions of how to make her more likely to eat or should i try switching to frozen? i know the person i bought her from has fed her live her whole life.
