My Childreni eats home grown thawed mice but refuses to eat purchased frozen . is there something done to the mice that would effect her eating.
also i am looking aroung for a female Bredli juvy in the nsw country or metro area to take my collection to two.
 
Frank, this often happens with my snakes. If i offer them rodents that have been laying in their own muck and reek of urine, the snakes go nuts for them. But if i give them a nice white labratory raise rodent that has been kept relatively clean they tend to turn their nose up at it. I had one python that refused to eat any rodent that had white fur. I either let them get very hungry and then offer the prey again or i rub a a strong smelling one onto the rodent it refused. Either way its usually taken.

Good luck
serpenttongue.
