It's been quite a few years since I've needed to since I've only kept a few bp's in recent years and they have all been acquired as babies. But back in the mid 90's I did have a small group of them, and at the time almost all bp's available were wc. I've found though that the most important "trick" is having your husbandry spot on. If the snake feels secure and hungry IME they will eat anything that triggers there feeding sensors. Beyond that just the usual tips. Very warm feeder, I prefer them dry because I don't like them covered in chipped aspen. Keeping the lights in the room as dark as possible. Red light works well for this. Slow movements, you want the snake focused on the feeder not on you. And most importantly patience. Just because you have 1 or a couple of failed attempts don't give up. The snake is not going to starve to death because it misses a couple of meals. In fact the hungrier it gets the better your odds for success are.Originally Posted by RoseyReps
