I started off by doing both. Every ball I bought was feeding on f/t or both live and f/t. Some ate very well, some skipped alot of meals. I figured out 2 of them that I thought where eating very well where just hiding the item under shavings. So in he end I would only thaw out about 10 mice and rats for 20 snakes... because the chances of me wasting some was very high. Most of them wouldnt eat them right away.... so I was forced to just leave them in there overnight... so the next day they stunk. With live, it forced me to check on them constantly for the next few hours if they didnt take it right away... but this rarly happens. The second a live mouse/gerbil/rat hits the cage I know their interest level.
Yup, I breed gerbils too, I found some of my BPs will refuse rats regularly, refuse mice rarly... and for those ocasions... I thow in a gerbil... and they almost always eat them... the gerbils just have a special way of freaking out... so the snake freaks out... and they only thing they snake can think to do is eat it... its actually very interesting... just make sure its not a mean gerbil... and watch those teeth!
Live all they way... everyone eats.
