Hello!
I have a female Kenyan sand boa, I've had her for about a month now. She is about a year old, we think, because and she's almost 24 inches now. I want to switch her to frozen meals... She takes small mice now, but she is a difficult feeder... she's only eaten once since we got her. I just tried to offer her a mouse yesterday night and she seemed interested, but didn't kill or eat it.

I am keeping her temp at about 90 now, so maybe this will resolve her picky eating problem, but I need some advice on how to switch her to frozen food...any advice would be nice, as I have read a few books, but nothing seems to give any tips on changing a snake from live to frozen prey...Thanks!

(Also...off topic but of interest...when a Kenyan hunts, what are they looking for exactly? is it mainly smell or vibration that draws them to the prey?)
