I personally wouldn't wait as long as a week. I think hatchlings are supposed to feed more often than that, and if it's having smaller than a whole pinky I'd imagine even more frequently. Why not try a pinky scented with tuna in 4 days time. I'm no expert though, so hopefully someone more knowledgeable will be along soon. |
