    Spoiled BP!

    I have a 3-1/2" 1-1/2 year old male BP who has vary good eating habits. The problem is he only eats gerbils! I made the mistake of feeding him them when I first got him and now thats all he will eat! I tryed cuting him off of them and only offering him small and medium rats for like 3 months and he showed absolutly no intrest in the rats what so ever, i even tryed entaginizing/teasing him to eat one with no luck. If any one has any info on converting my snake please e-mail me at jinxluck@hotmail.com


    Thanks -Jeff-

    You could try putting some soiled Gerbil bedding in a plastic bag, put a Rat in the bag with the Gerbil bedding... defrost/warm the whole thing in warm water... once warmed take the Rat out and serve. If that works repeat for a few feeds then offer a Rat in the normal way.... worked for me!
