does any one have any advice on some ways to get a snake that is eating live fuzzy mice to eat f/t? I think my main problem is keeping the mouse warm long enough for her to notice it.

Tell i got a few of mine to convert to F/T.....a few still wont. What i do is thaw a mouse, and leave it on a tray inside the tank overnight. When the snake goes around at night it will come by it and eat it. Remember if you have aspen or any loose substrate to use a plate or tray. If using newspaper you can just out the mouse in there. This has worked for most my snakes. Just not my BP and rattlesnake...I gotta heat up the mouse and dangle them with tongs for them

how should I do it if I have more than one snake in the cage? Just feed the other so that she won’t be hungry and eat it?

House them Seperately, so one won’t eat the other (snake).

I’m going to assume that both snakes are the same species...just gotta be careful. Agreed Marg and BooByVu. I respect people that keep hots.That stuff’s a whole new game.
