Thanks Brad!

They usually are not too hard to start - some take f/t small fuzzies for their first meals. Stubborn ones will usually take live with not too much trouble, and I have had very good success with switching those over to f/t.

Their WC / LTC parents are a bit different in this regard, and will mostly only take live mice. Rarely I can get them to take f/t - usually just after brumation...

Also, here is the scene in the egg tub this afternoon...
