feeding out of brumation

I finished brumating 5 western hognoses about 4 weeks ago. 2 out of the 5 have started eating. The other 3 don't even seem to know what a mouse is anymore LOL! How long does it take anyone elses hogs to start eating?

Have you introduced your males yet????dont push the females to eat out of cooling they will eat when ready,,i introduce the males two days out of cooling and slowly warm up the room but i still drop the temps in the room at night

I introduced 1 of the males to 1 of the females, because both of them ate already. I'm now going to start introducing my other male to the other 2 females. I'll take your advice then and don't worry about them feeding. Thank You!
