I'm certainly not the most experienced here but...welcome to my world

It seems to me in my limited experience that, in general many snakes are more interested in live, therefore, when they start to shut down, for whatever reason, be it sex, brumation and wtf? etc. the extra stimulus of live pushes 'em over the edge. Once back in feeding mode, they might more likely take f/t.

...I feel your pain...its a pain in the ass, but so the price we pay
