>>There was a recent post about feeding stubborn hatchlings. I thought the suggestions were great, but I have tried all these and have not gotten a single snake to eat. I know I must be doing something wrong, but if I knew what it was I would stop it. Is there feeding hatchlings for dummies?

>>I'm still looking for that Striped King snake that got away 45 years ago!!

How old are the hatchlings and how are they kept.

I know my Children's hatchlings like to live in shoeboxes with spaghnum moss cover at least an inch deep. No moving to feed, just put in a pinky.

Rats and corns I have raised need separate cups with pinks, sometimes brained, sometimes f/t , sometimes f/t and washed.

None of mine eat before they are two weeks old at least, sometimes a month.
