I have a young columbian boa whom i feed jumbo pre-killed mice to every 7 days. This week i placed her in her brown bag along with a live mouse. She showed interest in it as it was staying still but once it started hopping around she backed off. She has eaten live before and never hesitated to strike however this was months ago. Could she be used to pre-killed? I didn't think there was such thing as a snake refusing live prey aside from illness and such.
