Hello all and thanks in advance for any suggestoins or help you may be able to provide. I bought an 07 Red Albino in early 08 and it was sold to me as a garunteed frozen thawed pinky feeder it weighed in at 11 grams, the problem is that I have NEVER gotten him to feed on f/t pinks only frog/chicken egg scented or train fed behind a frog. He has fed only 10 times(with great frustration to me) since I got him, now he weighs 10 grams and I am running out of options he wont eat any of the following frogs,toads,eggs,guppy,goldfish,cricket,anole,gecko,anole eggs,gecko eggs, tuna,salmon,pinkies,salamanders,earthworm,pinkies wrapped in frogskins, just plain wont eat and I am not a starter I have been dealing with hogs for about 7 years now with no problems from any of the rest of my hogs
I keep his temps at 84-86 F and he is kept in a 6quart sterilite tub good ventalation 14hours of light with very little intrusion into my reptile room 2 times daily to check on them with no handling unless I am cleaning tubs. Seriously any ideas that I have not already tried may help, I really dont want to have to force feeding this guy
thanks again
