I am a little backwards on this issue, I feed dead mice first, I have found rat pinks can give loose stool. After about a week I will try live hoppers on those that have not eaten, about the same time I try live and dead rat pinks. I have never resorted to paperbag with boas, but I also do not mind feeding live for the first couple of feedings. They usually switch to dead pretty quick. Craig
