Today is my lucky day! I know this post has been made so many times (lol) but BOTH bp's ate there first rat today!!! Man I couldnt be happier.
And sorry for denying people before about my male and keeping him a mouse eater. All it takes is patience, and they will eventually all (well at least my two) will go to rats.
All I did this time was defrost them in the same bag, and scent each rat with a mouse.
The female struck right away after hissing, which was quite odd.
Then the male struck and missed, and this is where my dream shattered lol, but then he struck again and nailed it!
This is also the first time ive tried smaller rats (hoppers) Maybe the male was scared of the bigger rats I was trying before. This is the first time I tried for the female.
So all in all, great day!
PS: You know your a herper when a good day consists of your ball python switching to rats from mice :D:rolleyes:
