I can't get my snake to eat!

CaptainSeath May 18, 2009 11:17 PM

I have a baby snow cornsnake who has not really eaten since I got him. I fed him the first time three days after I got him, it was a thawed pinky, I then found the pinky regurgitated a few hours later. I've tried braining and other "tricks". Its been about 5 weeks, if he doesn't eat soon I think I'll have to try force-feeding. I want to start him on live because he hasn't eaten the frozens since the first time, but I can't find them anywhere. What do I do?
