    Finally ate.

    So it's been about two months since I got my carpet and she had only ate once the first weekend. But then kept refusing so I went to live then smaller and smaller and prekilled then finally tonight I got two rats the size my bp eats and the carpet went after it right away. So I guess I have a 6,5 foot carpet that doesn't wanna eat anything bigger then the rat below. What ever makes her happy and she eats regularly I won't complain. Anyone else have bigger snakes that take feeders that seem small for their size?
    Looks bigger cuz of how close the phone is he's the same size my two year old bp ate with no problems tho

    Ya she would just hang out above the bigger rats like she was hiding but I decided on a well nothing else to lose try an give her one the size my ball eats and soon as it was in the hunt was on haha once I get my rats to pop out some babies I'm gonna figure out what size is her ideal size. And I know finally time haha I've been wondering when she was gonna eat so I'm happy tonight haha if tapatalk had the dancing bananas they would be here.

    I'm happy with what ever size she decides to eat as long as its rats and their not extremely small since she's a good sized girl and has eaten a f/t jumbo for me but soon enough the rat babies will be flowing an shell be able to pick her perfect size then switched back to frozen
