    Incidentally .. The one that takes 20 minutes - have you tried giving the mouse / rat a quick ten second blast with a hair dryer ?? So heat up and offer / wiggle it and if it's refused give it another quick blast ... Repeat as required . The smell will also trigger a better response from some of the others as well .
    I have a couple of albino Royals who will only strike from inside their hide !! So I have to dangle the offering in front of the hide entrance ...

    Those two Albinos are fed every 10 to 14 days rather than weekly and it seems to suit them better ...

    Thankfully my other 20 snakes ( Burm / Boa / Kings / Garters / Rat snakes ... are all df frozen drop feeders and they take about 15 minutes all together every 7 to 8 days .
