7 out of 9 pinky eaters is a great ratio.....IMHO......

And as others mentioned a brumation could've helped those two especially if they were hatched later in the Summer and closer to Fall......

Plus....
They are all "feeders" if you feed them what they want.
I seem to have good luck feeding lizards first to stubborn feeders then scenting with their lizard of choice.

Mouse tails is another option but it can be a long and tedious process and there is no guarantee that they will switch to rodents.....and assist feeding is stressfull.....

Sorry you lost those two Tom.....
