I have had a few boas that have been hard to switch. What I do, when I try to switch them over is...wait a little longer to feed. Usually mine eat every 7 days, so I'll try on the 10th or 12th day.
Then I offer a fresh killed. If that works, then I do that for a few feedings just to make sure it wasn't a fluke. Then I try a frozen/thawed that has been warmed. Some times I scent the F/T first.
