Yep...agree with everyone here.

Just keep in mind, what ever scenting medium you use...be prepared to use that scent for a WHILE!

In other words...don't use a lizard unless you have easy access to them or you could be in another difficult situation.

I would personally try a live pink, 99% of the time that works after fail attempts at braining.

Also, Doug covered this well but it's very important so I will reiterate...

You must behave like a Ninja when preparing the snake to eat. If you place the snake in another container and it's all pissed off it won't eat...do whatever you can to minimize the stress on the snake BEFORE attempting to feed it.

Good luck!
