Hi, i know how annoying and frustrating feeding can be for baby milksnakes. I have a few ideas you could try, only some of which i found worked. Try putting the snake and a live pinky in a box over night (small box) then place it in its cage until the morning and check then. Secondly, u could try senting a live darker coloration of pinky with a frog (sometimes hard to do unless u have contacts) by rubbing the pinky against the frog. Then place the pinky on a white paper towel and place it in the snakes enclosue. As you know, most milks can be shy, so leave the room for a couple hours.
Good luck with those, Hope things work our for you, my Honduran Milk is driving me insane for the same problem.
