im just wondering if this is normal.... my burm needs to be constantly re-fed her food to get her to eat it. she will attack it, constrict it, hold it for a couple minutes, and drop it. i find myself re-animating it after this 3, 4, 5, 6, times every feeding to get her to actually eat it, she goes totally into feeding responce, nabbing everything that moves, but just... doesnt eat it.is this normal? is there a trick i should be using? i noticed the one time i fed her a fresh killed rat, she ate it irght away, could this b related? normally i feed frozen
