Well,.... like all my finicky pythons I would simply trick her by scenting the rabbits by rubbing rat saliva on the rabbit's nose. This works every time. But retics will generally switch over to rabbits when they decide they want to. Most, if not all eventually do (in my experience) and when they do it is like they have an all new hunger. Once mine prefer rabbits it's like they become optimal eating machines. Either trick yours or just give it time. It usually takes a year or two for them to do it on their own. In my opinion live rabbits placed in the cage may frighten them and can delay this.







>>how did you get it to switch to rabbits? i tried a rabbit on my retic and it won't take it.
