How hard is it to change a yearling diamond from eating lizzards to Mice?
Thanks,
Greg Dickinson

If it is anything like switching from mice to rats for Jungles it could take a long time.I have a Jungle that still refuses rats after 8 years of trying, hope you got a lot of lizards to work with..

Dave,
..There is still hope for your JCP to eventually eat rats. I have had one here for 11 years that steadfastly refused rats until after she laid eggs this summer. She has laid eggs in past summers and even being extremely hungry after laying would refuse rats. She now eats any size rat with no hesitation.
