Sean, I just re-read your post. Condition your hatchlings to feeding on something easy to provide..i.e. rodents or fish or chicks...I would only offer the lizards or especially a corn snake as a last resort. They really do like snakes... Read up on feeding techniques for kingsnakes and milk snakes, some of which are notoriously fussy, you will learn some good "tricks" that may apply. Don't overreact, one reason I became an Indigo enthusiast is because captive bred Drys are so easy and vigorous feeders, minimal fussing with pinky feet, tails, "braining" etc., good luck, Vic
