Great animals!

Anyway ... I'd first try leaving them in an 8 oz. deli overnight with a live pink.

If that doesn't work, I'd try holding them in one hand, and trying to entice them into a "strike feed" of a pink off hemostats.

If that doesn't work either, I'd probably partially assist them, getting the pink to the back of the throat and waiting for the swallow reflex to kick in.

Good luck!
Rob
