Ok for those of you that don't know Mayhem my brazilian rainbow boa well he is a fussy feeder and today i thought i would try him on mice and see what his feeding responce is like from that instead of ratpups which he can be very picky at.. .

Well i let this small mouse defrost then i blasted it with a hairdryer to warm it up and then put a small slit on the head of the mouse to draw some brains out to make the scent stronger well however i opens his RUB up and offer the small mouse to him and within a few secs he was extreamly intrested in it after he got closer to it out of the unexpected Bammm !! Strike and coil i was amazed that his feeding responce has jumped a big ammount so i take it as he don't like ratpups and prefers mice.. I have few pics below and a video of him eating.

Yeah, the nightly support phone calls and 12-step program really seemed to cheer him up. ;-)

Happy to help, and I hope he keeps eating well for you!

Yup, as noted in the last thread, Brazilians sure do love their mice. I have one female that quite often refuses rats outright, and I have to scent (heavily) with a mouse to get her to take it. Glad to see Mayhem chowed down!



Thank you Cliff , Thanks to you that he is eating so credit goes to you bud !!

It's amazing what they can get in their mouths!! lol well done Mayhem. I'm not gonna make this a regular thing though - a word of warning, he may be grumpy for a few days - Jade didn't appreciate me touching her after leaving her for 2 days, obviously a lot of digesting to do!!
