your rats might smell funny. Rats and mice have different smells. Wash off a F/T rat with bar soap and warm water. Be sure to get all the soap off. Then rub mice all over it to transfer the smell. Then offer the mouse-scented rat to the snake and see if it takes it. You could also try putting the snake in a small container with a live lg. rat pinky and put it in a dark, warm space, like a closet. Do NOT do this with an adult rat as it can harm the snake. Leave it overnight and see if it eats the rat.
