A friend of mine suggested that I feed her in a different enclosure so she won't associate food with enclosure.. reducing the possibility of me getting bit when I stick my hand in there.

Within about 2 minutes in this new enclosure (with nothing other than some news paper & a hopper) she got him. Choked him out and left him!

There were a few times that she went up to it...and it was like she was sniffing it. Didn't eat it. I thought if it wasn't moving she wouldn't eat so I decided to get the tongs and dangle it in front of her a little.. didn't care. She actually got a little scared with this method. After she wrapped around this hopper and killed it.. she started paying more attention to my wife & I. Maybe she was thinking: "You see that, you 2 big uglies are next!" lol. I watched her the first time. I don't understand.

Should I wait a week from that day and try again? In her enclosure? Blah.

Thanks,

Mike she more then likely did not eat it because you interupted her by watching.If she was eating for you while in her normal enclosure then why change the routine.I would wait a few days then give her a try in her enclosure and once she wraps it up leave her alone and no watching
