so today i had to force feed 2 baby pos het for pied girls. to explain i realy didnt force it all the way down i started the mice into the throat and then left them be without moving and let them finish it themselves.
my question is....are balls like corns in that they will normally take food on their own after getting forced to take food once?
just wondeing balls are new to me, but ive been breeding colubrids for about 10 years now and bred turtles for about 3 years prior to that.
thanks for any info and advice
