For a while when my Southern was younger, he would only eat rodents that were wet (frozen/thawed though not live)...but now he goes after anything that moves!

It makes sense considering that all almost everything they eat in the wild is moist. I am kind of surprised though that yours will eat rodents that have been in water and not tuna juice.

Well, the most important thing is that she eats. So congrats on finding a method that works!!
