I have a big guy who recently started eating, after 4 months of not taking anything.
I was told he was strickly a mouse eater, but im thinking about throwing a little Rat in with him, and seeing if he wants it.
My concern is that the rat will "Set Him Off", and he will quit feeding.
A few months ago he acted interested in a small rat, struck, Attempted to Coil, then let go. I havent offerd one again because I dont want to risk him not eating for this upcoming Breeding Season.
Advice?
