Its the smell that triggers a snakes food response, When you dangle a rat in front of a snake, what is the first thing that happens, they flick their tongue to get the smell of the rodent to their jacobsons organ to tell them hey this is food. So if a snake voluntarily is eating live mice it associates that familiar smell with food and it eats. Scenting could very well not work in this situation but saying that it makes no sense to scent, makes no sense.

Fair enough. I'd still go with a frog as it's their natural prey item.
