It's worth a try, no? Have someone else do it lol

The whole issue with that is that no one in my family would be willing to do that for me. Ahaha.

You have only just got him, how long did you try switching him to f/t for?

Adult royals only really need to eat a decent sized meal every 14 days and it may take a couple of months for him to decide to eat a f/t prey item.

I'll keep trying then, but in all honesty, I'm kinda looking forward to breeding mice. Plus, I'd have to drive 45 minutes into town everytime to get a rat, since the pet store near my house only sells mice.

Just be prepared to feed LOTS of mice to your adult snake!

I have a feed tub. If you can get him to do it, after a while it will be almost automatic
My baby pastel took until the 2nd time to get him, and now he hits it hard
