    Agree she looks Pin, and her coloration does look very Mojave to me as well, though the pattern doesn't look like a typical Jigsaw (Mojave Pinstripe) so I question if maybe she is just Pin and some combination of lighting or shed cycle is messing with colors. There is a lot of variation in pattern in them, so she very well could still be Jigsaw, even without the typical markings.

    As far as f/t vs live, I have full confidence I can eventually get them to switch, but not everyone has the patience I do. For the best odds, I'd get her settled in eating what she is used to, and after about a month work on switching her to f/t as long as she is a healthy weight, which she appears to be. If she refuses, wait 2 weeks before offering again so she doesn't get the idea food will be available at all times. Definitely try the hair-dryer method to get the temp of the head a bit hotter than the rest of the body like it is in live - after thawing slowly, zap with a hairdryer for a few to warm it up, focusing on the head.
