I switch them by getting pre-killed, or F/T and get a fresh piece of lizard tail, smash it up with my fingers, and rub the juice all over the pinkie real well, and stuff a small piece into the mouth of the pinkie.....After a while, you can rub less and less juice on the pinkie. After a while, the snake will associate the pinkie smell as being part of it's meal and eventually won't need to be scented at all................Doug
