I have a clutch of 7 Western Hognose Snakes just about 1 month old now and I've had varying levels of success with them feeding.

Pinkies eaten by each from hatching:

1. 5 & 1/2
2. 0
3. 0
4. 2 & 1/2
5. 1
6. 1
7. 0

Now as you can see there are 3 that are still yet to accept a meal.

I've tried plain pinkies, tuna scented, brianed, cut in half, leaving them in a small tub with the pinkie etc and they just aren't showing ANY interest.

The is 1 or 2 looking a little thin now so I really want to get them going soon.

Any pointers?
