I have her humidity at 60% as often as I can keep it there . I have her hot spot 85-90 and her cool spot at 75 she had multiple hides and always clean water .
*Her weight on 3/23/18 (258Grams) keep in mind I fed her on adult mouse 3/17/18
*Her weight today 4/2/18 (226 grams) I gave her a warm bath for about 30 mins yesterday with the wash cloth (temps not too hot and not too cold ). She still has residual shed on her ......
So my questions for you guys are these

Should I offer her a mouse today and try to get her weight back up before I try to get her on to rats ? Or should I keep with trying to switch her now ?
I've been going through the same feeding issues that you've been dealing with. I've been trying for awhile to convert from f/t mice to f/t rats but my boy just doesn't seem interested. I've tried scenting like you mentioned and he seems interested but never strikes. At one point, I decided to give up and concentrate on putting some weight on him. He's now at 400grams and I decided to try again last week w/ the same results. I'll try again this weekend but I might just have to accept that he might be a mouse eater. Speaking of which, can BPs still reach there potential size feeding on mice?
