    Slightly raise both the temp and the humidity for a few hours.

    They are siblings, so if I successfully start them off, I would be happy to trade a couple for compatible babies.

    I personally will not breed siblings, that is a personal choice, I believe in using unrelated bloodlines for healthier snakes. But thats just my opinion.

    try small worms...a lot of my non-feeders have gotten going on worms. I have had real good luck feeding pinkies to worm eaters. also, I have used guppies in clear deli cup wate dishes, sometimes they want moving food to attract them. I would be interested in a pair if they start eating. got a male anery already.

    I hope they start eating for you (once you get them).

    Let's hope you can get them started! I've always wanted to try toadpoles to get unwilling baby snakes to feed. I may be able to convince my cousin to let me steal some from her pond. :P
