My SD Retics slow feeding response

[JustMeNmySnakes]

Howzit folks? I've read so many posts about great feeding responses, even with f/t prey.
My SD Retics response to live mice was quick and quite spectacular. Especially compared to how she feeds on her f/t rats. I thaw then try and dangle the rat in front of her and at first expected her to strike and wrap the rat up like I've seen other snakes attack f/t, but no such response. I now lay the rat on her hide. She slowly searches for her meal, finds it, then slowly and methodically takes the head and starts swallowing.
I mean, there's nothing wrong with her appetite and if there's nothing to worry about, I guess this post was a big waste of time.
Any ideas, past experiences, advice??

Thanks for reading..
