Hi all,
I've just gotten a hatchling amelanistic corn and after two attempts at feeding warmed, thawed pinkies, he hasn't taken. I know I'm probably just suffering new owner nerves, but I'm wondering if anyone has any advice.
I've tried leaving him alone with the mouse and I've tried the "mousie dance" to no avail. He doesn't seem to be getting ready to shed, and it's possible that the first mouse was off, having been thawed for quite some time. I haven't tried a mouse I'm certain is fine yet with tongs and a bit of motion, so I've still got to do that one.
In any case, I know that corns are not generally tricksy feeders so I'm a little worried.
Any thoughts from the pros?
Val
