Nice try, but unfortunately it happens with live prey too. If I even nudge it they immediately LAUNCH at it again, go into a death grip (on a now dead mouse) and after a few minutes let go and kinda wander for a few moments and then act like they forgot they were eating.

So F/T, live, fresh killed, etc. etc. doesn't matter. THEY DO THIS WITH EVERYTHING. And they didn't use to. Both use to eat like it was no problem. Didn't matter what I gave them, gulp all gone.
