I really don't like to force feed, that's a last resort. First I try all the usual stuff, scenting, lizard tails, parts of mice tails, body parts of small lizards and pinkies, braining pinks. If all that fails, I'll do what I have to in order to keep the snake/snakes alive till they start eating on their own. Good luck with your snakes and keep us up to date on how the feeding goes.

>>Funny you should mention it. I just stepped out of my snake room, and got one of my last 2 holdouts to eat by tease feeding it. The other with a cool aberrant pattern, still refuses. I may pinky pump him tomorrow, in an effort to keep him alive.
