Then again, I could be reading into things too much.

Mine (so far) will eat anything. I mostly feed live, but I tried to make millions of mice and they offed each other, so I froze them. She's eaten two of those with the same vigor as the live ones.

I was wondering if different colors smell different, or look different to the snake. Obviously, they do! Interesting.
