Have you tried leaving him in, say, a deli cup with the thawed pink overnight? Sometimes given a longer time in close quarters with the food, they'll decide it doesn't look all that bad after all. At least, my adults tend to eat frozen more readily given a few hours in a box in a dark corner. Good luck,



Deli cup method I have tried for weeks but no good unless live pinkie but that was my problem. I used that method last night combined with tweezers holding the thawed pinkie after awhile of "moving" the pinkie nudging his nose he bit it than ate it.

I hope next time he just takes it but its a start . Its nice once your on the track to easy feeding .
Thanks
