I have 2 hatchlings that I found out in my outside pen back around Nov 10th or so. I cannot get them to eat. I have them in a 10 gallon with good substrate keeping them moist they have plenty of light but when it comes to eating no luck. I have tried cut up earthworms and also reptomin. Its what I have done in the past and it has worked because I have a group of 11 from the previous 2 yrs that are doing great. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I cant see how they will survive much longer without eating something.
