Feeding try
Well its reaching the 3 month mark of Ghonda not eating, she is still perfectly healthy and a good weight i would say from eyeballin her. but today im going to try to feed her since its been pretty warm in my house and her temps have been a few degrees above what she is used to, and im hoping she will want it. if this doesnt work im going to get her a XL mouse instead of a small rat. see how she does with her old prey item.

Re: Feeding try
There is no problem wopith corns living on mice all their lives, if he likes them then you could stick with them. My adult takes an xl mouse every 14 days.

Re: Feeding try
Kings to King Snakes? Plenty of milk to Milk Snakes? THIS IS MADNESS.
I'm guessing my Rainbow Boa needs more rainbows in his diet.

It's always a good feeling when they eat right away. I've had a few stress me, including my Nicaraguan who did not eat for over 2 months. She is back on track now.
And speaking of back on track. JR, I'll have to agree with Rob here. Corns can be fed on mice their entire lives. If it makes you feel better to feed rats, maybe you could alternate every other feeding, a rat, a mouse, a rat, a mouse, some corn, some skittles etc. etc. etc.
