Jorge, the one non-feeder I have is making me crazy. How do you force that little mouth open to try force feeding? Any suggestions on how to do it without causing any harm?



This one did take a f/t pinky right after its first shed, but that was on 8/13. Since then I have tried live, f/t split brain, anole, anole scented, salmon scented (I know people suggest tuna, but I like canned salmon better!)



This morning I spent about 10 minutes trying tease feeding, with a split brain f/t. Messy, but unsuccessful.



The rest are doing great, and getting ready to shed for their second time. One still requires lizard scent, but thats no problem.
