snakes can be finicky.. if he doesn’t want that rat and you know it.. why keep offering it to him? LOL I realize that this is rather strange... but his tastes aren’t going to change just b/c you keep putting it infront of him. My husband says that anything ..any animal... any human being will eat when it gets hungry enough... and to some extent.. I agree... but if you’re not out of rats and there is more.. why keep stressing the snake out? and P.S. my snakes sleep in my bra all the time.. I can even take them out in public like that.. but please children don’t try this at home... I can see stressed out snakes and heart attack victims all over the world as we speak. I know my snakes and I know which ones I can do that with and which ones I can’t. the BP will go anywhere in my bra... the male RTB will hang out on my shoulders.. but the female 7’ long RTB will stress and bite... the new corn..well she’s just too hyper lol getting back to your question.. it’s obvious the snake doesn’t..for some strange reason want that rat... is it a different color.. different breed...hell I don’t know.. it seems pointless to continue to offer it.. however the bra thing is kinda funny.. you should try being in a nice quiet pub... having your friends talking to you.. when suddenly a snake’s head pops out of the cleavage... the look on their face is PRICELESS.. (ofcourse I know better than to do something stupid like that with say a dance club or something that would stress my snakes) thought I’d better throw that in before I get slammed lol
