Hello- last september I picked up this Coffee line pair of greybands that had been non-eaters their first 5 weeks of life. Having a decent size colony of western fence lizards, I was hopefully optomistic. Offering scented, then HEAVILY scented didnt work, but both readily took lizards for their first couple of meals. It was only then, after consuming a couple of lizards that the first one, then the other took the heavily scented variety of pinks(heavily scented involved lizard skin). After 2 meals this way, i went to well-rubbed lizard scenting and after 2 more pinks, offered unscented last nite. Woke up this am and they both ate! Feels great after all that work. I have a 2011 male generic gb that had gone a year plus on lizards before taking 2 pinks then shutting down for winter. Hoping when he wakes up he continues on scented pinks. Pic is from couple weeks ago after mowing lawn, obviously not Jlass or heavenhell quality! Dave.
