I'm afraid I'm going to have to the same or even use a small mouse hopper to get my Fire eating again.
It's apparently become timid and afraid of 'lively' adult mice after the attempted, unsuccessful F/T switch.
I need to rebuild the snake's confidence and desire to eat and although I'm loathe to do it, now, considering what the OP wrote, I'm going to have to do something just like that.
