Ugh..help?

Agree with the above advice. Make the sacrifice and drive to get the live food weekly for now. After a few good meals and a good eating habit is forming, you can try to transition to F/T again.

Also - it wouldn't cost much to buy a small critter keeper and some mice food and keep a few alone for a few weeks if you prefer.

The thing is that I'd have to clean up after them, and it's just more animal husbandry on top of a cat and 2 snakes. I did read that you can provoke a snake to eat if you dip the f/t in chicken broth. Does anyone have any experience with that? Does it work? It's just so puzzling that this snake ate a f/t for me the first time I tried to feed it, and won't eat another one. Then again...it is a BP. I'll try the chicken broth trick tomorrow if someone thinks that it'll give me a 50/50 chance. If not, I'll be able to go to a pet store and get some live mice on wednesday.
