:Well i have a secret and confusing weapon. You'd figure id say setup a hidebox or try at night both 2 good ideas. But I was like you poed that my snake would not take f/t but my buddy constantly said shes eating f/t and he was down feeding them when i wasnt around so of course I thought he was lying. Well i walk downstairs one day and to my amazement she was feeding f/t but not rodents pullets or teeneage chickens light dawned on marblehead i had found the snakes (and most other boids) secret to getting to wack anything scent with poultry if you can get it a f/t chick is awesome at scenting till you can wean the snakem off of it. I realize chciks can be hard to come by but it works great.

:ps. I heard Kevin of NERDS mention using chicken broth to scent to hes 100x the keeper i am so it probably does work but i havent tried it.
