I've had this stubborn feeder since August. ok, not that stubborn, but I could only get him to eat live mice. anyway, I didn't mind it so much until I bought 200 frozen mice, and then realized that he would not eat them. Well, I tricked him! he he he. I suppose I should have figured it out along time ago though.

What I did was put the thawed mouse under a light until it felt warm. And he gobbled it up! I guess they use their heat pits alot for hunting. (no wonder why he always used to go after my arm instead of the mouse, my arm was warmer.)



Yeah, so its not like I'm some genius or anything, but I'm pretty dang proud of myself for figuring him out, and I thought I would let everybody know.
