Heck yeah man!, I cannot think of a specimen more worthy of the descriptive term "paradox axanthic". It is 100% accurate by definition in every way possible.

Yeah, I know what you mean about having some goof-ball finicky snakes with unique feeding quirks in the collection. You are not alone there pal..LOL!

Have you tried different types of rodents with her?, like rats insted of mice, or vice versa, or maybe ASF mice, etc..or even different hair colored prey instead of white hair, tried dark haired rodents. I know it sounds weird, but an older wild snake might have some old habits she is really used to, ya never really know..

Maybe some good supplementation with some frozen chicks just might be the ticket too, who knows. Being as how Texas Rats can be very arboreal and nest raiders, etc....

Anyway, best of luck with her and the others, that thing is awesome man!
