So I have read that switching up the size of the prey is a good idea to maintain a healthy b/p etc.
Is this something that I should be doing? We have just gotten 2 b/p's from a very bad owner, they were in a tank with no heating, no water to bath in..only a small dish to drink out of etc. We tried to feed them both tonight using frozen rats (small) but they wouldnt touch them. I know they could a) be stressed over the move that took place about a week ago. b) arent used to eading frozen (they ate live..and in there tank!) and I have also been having some trouble keeping there humidity under control.

The old owner said they were both fantastic eaters, and they are actually pretty plump. 1 is 4 foot and the other is 3 foot but both are 2 years old.

She wasnt to clear on what they ate and I am sure she didnt know the diffrence between rats and mice.

So as you can tell I am in a pickle, tonight I let them take a nice long soak while I cleaned out there tank and everything and after that they really seemed ready to eat and spent the rest of the day crawling around there place. But once we got them into there feeding boxes they would have no part of it.

Also, I was attempting to feed them small rats, maybe they arent ready for them?? If not how many of which should I be feeding them? I have also decided to just go back to live since that is the only thing the old owner did know about them.

Do help please.
