 Lets switch

I want to switch Lola from live feed over to pre killed. I tried just dangling the mouse in front of her but she didnt even care. then i put a live one in there and she gobbled it right up so i knoe she was willing to eat. also what is the best way to kill the mouse at? the one killed i used the handle of a screwdriver to bludgen it to death. horrific i know. but it seemed like the best way at the time. mybe just smother it?
Thanks, K.C.

I have had similar problems, but I keep on trying. Be very careful, and make sure that your snake is not seeing your hand as food as well, it may look to big to eat. I often feed a couple of mice or rats at one feeding so maybe the first one feed live then the next stun it but don’t kill it. I know that this seems mean but if you crack it over the head with the screw driver and it is still twitching, it is knocked out. It wont feel a thing.
try different things like dangling, just let lay there and twitch, just keep trying different things.
