6-8 giant rats a week for an 8footer? Wow I fed mine 1 jumbo or collossal rat every week at that length. 6-8 in a single week seems quite excessive in my opinion.

About the rabbit refusal, how about prekilling a rabbit THEN scenting it? He may respond better to a warm fresh body. Good luck.





>>Hi Guys,

>>I need some suggestions to help out my costs at the moment, Currently my 8 foot albino Burmese is eating roughly 6-8 giant rats a week, i am desperatley trying to get him to eat rabbits for obvious reasons, when i try him with them he just hisses and flees from them.

>>I only use f/t food, i have tried scenting the rabbits with rats, he seems kinda interested but then when it looks like he is gonna strike, he hisses and flees again.

>>

>>I am only paying 90p(uk) which is about $1.68 a rat but if i dont get him changed this bill is only gonna get bigger, dont get me wrong i will never part with him, regardless, i am just trying to curb a little costs

>>Any ideas?
