Annarose, if I ever meet you in person, I'm going to give you a massive kiss on the lips. I don't care who's watching. I followed your advice and placed the thawed mouse in front of her hide. I took my tweezers I use to feed and wiggled it head first into the hide, and that's all it took. Within a nano second she struck that mouse. I put her lid back on and checked back after thirty minutes, no mouse to be seen. That's a huge weight off my shoulders! Thank you so much for the advice!!
