NIce, they're awesome. Glad they're eating.

Update!

the one brilliant eater ate 2 non scented pinky chunks today straight off the tweezers, and since its the 4th feed, hes now ready to find a new home.

one of the others seems to like fish best, so he had his 2nd feed today, still hoping to transition him onto pinkies asap, but the fish will keep him going for now.

which leaves the last one, who is still refusing to eat anything at all, overall hes a very shy, quiet snake, so maybe relocating him to somewhere quieter and then leaving food with him for a longer period will tempt him. He still looks in pretty good shape, but is starting to lag a bit behind the other 2 since they have eaten.

so fingers crossed.

Thanks for the update.
It's always nice when the babies start and continue eating.
Hope your hold out starts eating.

Here is a long needed update.

greedy guts continues to stuff her face with pinky parts, she ( i think its a girl looking at the tail) will eat as until shes full taking food straight off the tweezers. she is sold now, her owner is coming for her next week

Got the other one established on fish now, still wont touch the pinkies but is doing great on the fish.


and that just leaves the last one, the little hold out, who refused to eat anything at all until today. He ate a tiny bit of fish all by himself So finally he can start catching up with the other 2.

Here's a picture of the little one, taking shelter in his bottlecap water bowl after eating^^

And eating already! How do you do that??!!!

i cut up the food, be it fish or pinkies and just left it in with them for 5-10 mins and they usually took it that way. covered them up with something too so it was a bit darker for their first feed. Worked for me

Love the bottle cap photo. Funny little scrubs.

Love that pic. Awesomely cute.

And eating already! How do you do that??!!!

By trying everything. Usually it works, but sometimes, on rare occasions, it doesn't happen. In those cases, there is nothing you can do.
