Hey Tim,

yeah actually a good percentage take pinks fairly easily. Probably one of the more easier NA milks to get on pinks in my experience.

I'd say about 25% take a pink right away (either live or f/t) and 50% eat a pink around 4 weeks of hatching and then 25% need to be tailed for a month or two but then switch over usually to live.

I agree that likely the babies are eating baby "feeder" snakes in the wild like brown snakes, worm snakes, ringnecks, etc.

Great find. I hope to see you posting more.

BTW, how is that "hypo" Ltt doing?
