Well, Jerry was very nice, but our deal was for rodent eaters (I supposedly had the choice specimens of the litter), and Jerry wanted to wait until it warmed up a little before shipping because he doesn't use heat packs...I ordered the snakes in Jan., got them last week in March. They both refused live scented and unscented pinks. I finally broke down, and spent $80 bucks getting some cricket frogs (Acris sp.) sent from FL. After a few meals of those (which both took eagerly), I begin scenting live pinks with f/t frogs. This worked pretty well, and the female hasn't missed a meal since then (except when she was in shed). She is now on f/t unscented pinks, complete rodent eating machine. The male has refused live pinks scented with green anoles twice in a row now...he took one a few weeks back but... Anyway, I hope I can get him to eat, I get very attached to my animals,

Can't say anything really bad about Jerry, he is a nice guy with really nice animals, but our deal was for rodent eaters, and that is not what I got.
