I dunno Mr. Carmicheal (sorry if mispelled). I have tried all the tricks mentioned, with the exception of the quail one..gotta give that try, and my albino burm just simply refuses...and im talking REFUSES...frozen feeders. I have been trying since he was old enough to take rat pups, which is what he was eating at the time I acquired him, to switch him over to frozen feeders for a number of obvious reasons...safety, confenience, etc...and have had no success. The only time he has ever eaten frozens were when I have trailed them behind live feeders, but contrary to what I believed would happen, he will not touch them when they are offered alone..no matter what I do. Obviously I am doing something wrong if you have gotten dozens to switch over and I cannot get one hehe, but I do not know what can be done. I really am not comfortable with my burm only eating live because of the dangers involved but I am even less comfortable with the idea of my burm starving itself (which it seems to attempt every now and then hehe *exagerating*). It has gone a good three months without showing the slightest interest in a frozen feeder, yet the second something live is introduced it eats as if it hadnt eaten in months..which at that point was the case lol. Any response would be appreciated. Thanks. Eddie.
