Have you tried to hand feed you’re python like I’ve had to by just dangling a rat in front of it until it strikes and coils. I had a Retic that wouldnt eat when I first got her and then I tried hand feeding her and now she eats like a champ. If that doesnt work you might have to assist feed.
You shouldn’t assess feed unless the animal is completely unable to eat and has not eaten before because this can cause stress about eating.
I believe at @westridge @mnroyals and @saleengrinch have talked about this on different occasions
You never assist feed a snake that already knows how to eat. Only time I would even recommend assist feeding is when you have a new born hatchling that has never eaten before and they have reached a level of malnutrition.
I would just keep offering her live, give it a few weeks and try frozen thawed after that.
I know everyone wants to offer f/t but some snakes just prefer live.
