Ok. I have 1 relectant feeder. I have gone through all of the normal book suggestions to get them to eat. She has eaten with me before. (1) pinky head, (1) pinky and I saw her feeding record from Petsmart and she had eaten there once as well. She is very small, but strong and in good health. It may be possible she is going into her 1st or 2nd shed, though i don't know. Her eyes aren't blue, and she is an anery so I don't if I just can't see the faded color yet....cage temps are fine and water and hides are present.

This is the 2nd week she hasn't eaten. I'm not worried yet, and I am being patient with her- but I'd rather have her eating...

So aside from the normal book suggestions to get a corn snake to eat anybody have any other suggestions that work? I am thinking of washing a pinky and trying that method. Thanks in advance.
