>>I just use some Gerber brand baby food liver, chicken, turkey or beef. I mix the baby food with a little water and add a good vitamin/calcium mix like Reptical.

>>I don't even use the "pinky pumps" any longer. They are not worth the frustration. Are messy to work with and never worked well grating the pinks. Instead I use a large syringe with a rubber hose attached. This way you can store the left over in the frig and re-use. The rubber attachment is also softer on the snakes mouth and can be fed deeper.

I like that idea. I have a GBK that dosn't want to eat, I might have to resort to that. How deep do you feed the tube? And how do you switch to pinks later on.

Thanks; R.Bichler
