I know an easy way to fix Snakes not eating F/t cause mine wouldn't either for a really long time! if your snake is as pickey as mine this should work for you! Go to your nearest local pet store and ask for the bedding from the mice cages, better yet ask for feeder mice bedding. next drop your snakes thawed prey into the bedding for just a second. You want to do this rather quickly so that the mouse doesn't get cold. the smell of the feeder mice is sure to entice any pickey snake! I hope this comes in handy! ( will also probably work with hamster bedding too.. )
