Hey guys, I just had a question. I’m pretty interested in picking up a specific young snake, however, it’s currently being fed live mice. Was wondering, if my end goal is to feed FT rats, how should I ‘prep’ accordingly? Some of the things I’ve been thinking about were trying to visit Petco/pet smart and ask if I could have a bit of the bedding for their mice, not touching them/interacting them for over a week, and then scenting with a FT mouse. I know there’s a chance that it’ll just grab the FT rat right off the bat, but I’d rather be safe than sorry and have some back up plans.
Has anyone had to switch from live mice to FT rats and what was your experience with it?
