I got some baby copperheads last summer, and after a few forced feedings out of necessity, would you believe they JUST ate voluntarily for the first time last week? I tried frogs, and brains and anoles and other kinds of frogs and live and prekilled and "deli-cupping" (confined space with food item) and all sorts of other things.
I've been worried about them all along, until the other day, when they ate a f/t fuzzy for the first time. I have to admit, I put them in the hands of my "venomous mentor" and his magic finally paid off. Thanks Chris!!!!!!!!!
