feeding frustrations/help

wbcrows Oct 12, 2008 02:54 PM

OK really frustrated, having a hard time getting my graybanded to take scented f/t pinks and no success twice so far getting an anery brooksi to take f/t pinks.
both were purchased seperately from reputable breeders so that's not the problem. Just getting frustrated seeing the f/t pinks not eaten and getting nervous
the GB has taken one pink in 5 weeks

Others may disagree, but if it has been a really long time, the first thing I would do is offer a live pink, if that is refused, then try a live anole or fence lizard if you have access to them.

That said, how are you scenting the pinks and with what?

Also, what are the temps? Are you sure the night time temp is not dropping too low so that it discurages feeding?
