Phobos has great advice. Years ago I got 50 out of 53 neo schlegs to take heated pinky heads. The pinky heads were dipped in hot tap water for about 5 sec. before tease feeding. The only inconvenience was once I got the baby to grab the head, I had to sit very still so as not to cause the snake to spit the head out. Took me over 4 hours at a time to individiually feed those babies. Once they could handle whole pinks, they were on their way.
Best...
Jim
