put the snake in a small,dark vivarium/container with just a piece of bark and a small plastic water container.Cover the water container with a good amount of plastic plants.The snake will undoubtedly enter the water tub and stay in there hiding.Leave it completely alone for a a few days(the longer the better)then place a dead bird(canary and zebra finches work best)amongst the plants and leave overnight.This method seems to work very well,you can do the same thing using mice and chicks however it will take longer for the snake to begin feeding.Once it feeds like this a couple of times you can switch it over to rat pups-always go to rats asap as anacondas sometimes specialise in one type of prey item and will not eat anyhting else.
