Our large female is quite a finnicky eater, she refuses f/t and only takes live/stunned prey. We're lucky if we get her to eat every 3-4 weeks. She's 9 ft and a steady 25lbs, but we were hoping to get a little weight on her before breeding to be on the safe side. Right now we feed her the largest rats we can come up with. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions that might help? I've been told that chicken is good way to get her to eat, but i'm not sure? Also, i was considering maybe bringing her up to rabbits, since she doesn't eat very often. Is it hard to get them to switch? Any advice is appreciated. :D
