I force feed chicklegs like this. I cut the leg just above the knee. It's way more easier to stick it down the throath and put the snake back in the buttercup. The it will swallow the leg on it's own which triggers it whole 'knowing stuff can be eaten' thing. Chicklegs are very easy digestable for them too.

Thats very interesting Marcel. Having the bone to hold on to would make it easier to get the snakes swallowing instinct going. Fortunatly as soon as I got home from work this morning My wife and I (Mostly my wife) forced a whole pink into my little girl. It wasn't easy, took about 20 minutes. She acted like she had no idea how to swallow. Hopefully she will eat on her own next time. Today was her first meal since I bought her Four weeks ago. Thanks again Marcel Jim
