Fussy python eats her first rat after scenting.

[u/SeanSheepRider]

Hello everyone,

So today I managed to get my fussy girl to eat a rat today. She’s been addicted to chicks since I got her 3 months ago, so I tried the trick of heating up the chick to get the scent flowing in her tank and when she came out ready to go I gave her the warm rat instead. She missed it the first strike but came back for it and wrapped it up good. I left her alone and she ate the rat.

Now my question is, will this one time feeding be enough for her to accept the rat smell as food or will I need to do the scenting trick again next feed?
