Feeding tip

If anyone has an extremely picky eater... try scenting with a sprng peeper. Apparently my hognose likes the peeper scent better than toads or green treefrogs. I even tested it! I layed out 4 pinkies... one with no scent, one with green treefrog scent, one with toad scent and one with peeper scent and she ate only the peeper scent. Thank god it's finally spring!
