After 7 plus weeks of not feeding, my ball finally slammed a live rat. Wasn't even in there 2 minutes and SMACK he got it. Such a relief. Thanks a million Kara!!!

That must have been a huge relief! Did you do anything differently (different set-up in enclosure, temp. type of food, etc)??

Fed him live instead of f/t. He has eaten live in the past however I he has been raised up on f/t. Had been showing no interest at all in frozen so we gave live a shot. He had no problem nailing the rat. Ideally I do not want to feed him live and will attempt frozen from here on out.
