I don't seem to have any problems with them. Most of mine eat just fine as babies, juvies and adults - I have one female that was a mouser when I got her and a pain in the butt feeder but I've gotten converted to rats and she eats regularly now - tho she likes to go on a 5 month winter fast which is annoying but I have a spider that does the same thing so I would just say it's her way of feeding and not anything to do with her being a pied.

That all being said I have noticed that good feeders tend to throw good feeders and poor/picky feeders throw the same. It could be that early in the pied project there might have been a picky feeder gene that got bred into the line.

Or it could be that people tend to take more notice of the feeding habits that most taunt. If it was a normal that was a picky feeder it wouldn't be such a big deal it would be a "typical ball".
