I've tried live pinks, ft pinks (raise my own mice) live fence lizards (raise those too) and all the usual things like braining, feeding in deli cup, etc, nothing is working. This 09 baby ate sporadically until July 21 of this year and has not eaten since, even though his sister and her cage mate have eaten on a weekly basis, live pinks and ft pinks. My procedure now is to have him in this little ten gallon tank with a cozy hide over UTH and deep substrate, and a cool spot with moist sphagnum moss hide and his water bowl nested in a pan of moss (he likes the moss around the bowl on hot days) I put a live pink under or near the hide every few days. He does come out and look around and he drinks water and makes urates, so he seems healthy, he just does not eat enough. I wont have any way of brumating him until late fall (to reset feeding response), so I wish he would eat now!
