Well if all else has failed .. it’s time to try the all conquering “hairdryer method” of feeding
:::
My method is to thaw the mouse/rat near the snake viv during the day , then feed in the evening (wait until it’s dark / dim light )
So wait until the snake is well settled under a hide , open the glass door , using tongs give the mouse a good blast with a hairdryer ( plugged in near the viv ) then immediately dangle the mouse in front of the hide entrance .
If there’s no strike simply reheat with the hairdryer and again dangle it instantly whilst it’s still warm ... in the odd case you may have to repeat the process 5 or 6 times but in my experience it rarely fails .. .
Follow the method closely and it works 90%+ of the time I’d say - the other 10% of the time I’d put down to the snakes being in shed mode or breeding mode or stressed and simply not interested in food .
