Hey everyone. I purchased a one month old hognose from Daytona a couple weeks ago. For the life of me, I cannot get this kid to eat! I have tried live, frozen thawed, split brain, wild caught lizard (hated doing that, but wanted her to eat, she still didn't.)



I was told by the breeder that she had taken mice pinks. I'm thinking I got ripped off.



I have heard about the scenting thing, but I don't have any frogs readily available to use to scent pinks. Will anything else work?



Thanks for any help. I did a quick search here, but couldn't find anything relevant to my problem. I do apologize if this has been covered before.
