Lyre snakes often feed only on lizards. I've switched them over to rodents by scenting the rodents, and I currently have one that eats defrosted mice just like a kingsnake. Lyre snakes don't eat as much as kings or ratsnakes, though, and once you get yours eating rodents, it may only eat once a month. While it's eating lizards, be prepared to feed it often--there just doesn't seem to be as much meat on a lizard as on a mouse.
