I know a few breeders that worked many years with pyros. They all agree that after many generations, a higher percentage of the babies eat pinks right off without any scenting, this being in contrast to earlier days. Perhaps after many generations in captivity the "natural environment" becomes a sweaterbox and the babies are more likely to imprint on pinks as their staple.

Would be interesting for you guys to see if that happens in your collections with the more confirmed lizard eaters.
