I agree BP's are deffinately my fav's but even when ppl are doing everything to the T their eating habits still drive me nuts at times. But I have learned to never touch the F/T with my bare hands. I had one BP back in the day during his rat pup stage would not touch anything (live/PK/FT) if it did not have black on it. If anything was solid white ya forget it!Originally Posted by drugaria
I've experienced exactly the same thing with mine. He's a 15 months old and I've fed him rats since he was a month old. Up until 2 months ago he gradually refused to eat frozen rats in the very same way as you described.
I even tried a frozen mouse and a pre killed mouse and he will just sniff around and leave. Otherwise he seems perfectly healthy and comes out around the cage every night. His set up is great and temps/hum are perfect.
So at this point I guess I'll wait because as picky as he's become, I have a feeling that if he eats live mice once he'll bever go back to frozen. For that reason as much as I like balls I hate them too. I can feed my boas live and frozen anytime and they'll never ever refuse and be picky. Good luck and keep us posted.
