    To get them to eat f/t, I will set the rat out til it gets room temp then I put it in a bag and submerge it in hot water til it's body temp gets to about 100 or a little more. Then I use tongs to wiggle it around in front of my snakes. Only one of my snakes had ever had f/t so when my dealer was out of live, I was a bit worried. I did this method and all 5 of my snakes took f/t no problem

    Ok, I guess I'll try that. She's pretty small still, so I want to try to avoid missing too many meals.
