Thanks Mike, I was going to keep this guy until the spotted one hatched out, he is a real garbage pail eater too. I don't have room for all of them (Hognose pair is out a here to make room).

I still have five non-feeders (not counting the last bunch to hatch). The worst two have gone about five weeks, the other three are only about three weeks. One is #15 though. So far I have tried live, F/T, F/T brained, F/T whacked in half (did not work for any!), F/T washed and scented (lizard was not too thrilled about getting rub all over dead mice). All will eat eventually, I only had to brumate two non-feeders last year and they ate like pigs after that. Next is mouse-tails dipped in Nutri-bac, sometimes gets things working.
