I've had rusty for about 4 months now and when i got her she was only eating chicks ive tried her on mice but she wont eat them i measured her and she is exactly 5ft and quite on the large side ive recently noticed after feeding her a chick once she's pushed it down it's barely visible what other food item could i offer her or should i feed her more than one chick ?
Thanks in advance :)

Go for a mouse thats around 1.5 x the thickest part of the snake.

As above, try scenting the mouse with a chick.

I was told that chicks dont have the nutrition of mice and rats but i dont know what size of mice to get if a chick isnt leaving much of a bump

Try putting a mouse in with the chicks to transfer the scent, I do not think a chick offers enough nourishment.
