For the stubborn ones that will not take pinks, anyone have some tips?
I got 1 baby to take gecko-scented f/t pinkies multiple times, so I think that snake will be fine. I have 1 baby that took unscented f/t, so good there.
I have 2 others that refused the unscented and gecko-scented pinks. What scenting should I try?
Thanks for any help.
What are you trying to get to eat? Different "tricks" for different species.
These are brown house snakes, the more common ones in captivity. The adults eat mice very well. I have a few 6-month-olds that eat mice as well, so I know this species is happy on mice. It is just a few babies that are being stubborn, while others are eating pinks now with gusto.
