Mouse, is what I was after. Try a crawler/hopper mouse. One that's moving around real good.

What subspecies? Ten inches sounds very small. Good luck to you!

In addition, you might try late at night right when everyone is going to bed. Then the only vibrations the snake will feel, will be coming from the prey. They have a very well developed inner ear.

They are Brazilian rainbows. Let say they are 12 inches. Still they looked so not right. Not healthy. All my snakes I raised from babies. My others girls are brb's .....ohhhh boy. From babies they looked good. But they were bought from Bryan Hummel and Kim bell. Anyways. I'm taking all suggestions. I got a pinky in them for now. They have the belly bump. They did not regurgitate. But now ill wait longer and take some of your suggestions. Thank you guys.

I agree with Rick's suggestion of what to offer next, and when. Also make sure to turn out all the lights in the room before you introduce the food item, as these snakes do *not* like bright light. Good luck!
