JUst a simple question: Is it not possible for a bp that eats rats well to just go off of them, especially if you change their environment? I ask because the assumption is that if the breeder said the snake east rats and the snake won't for the new owner, the breeder must have been lying. But, in my limited experience, snakes WILL suddenly stop eating rats and only want mice. 50% of my snakes have done that. ; (I have two...)
So, rather than assume the breeder lied, why not assume the snake changed?
