well i defrost mine in a small plastic box with the lid on next to the viv, so then it becomes humid and stays warm, and slightly damp, and she just wolfs them up!. and also i find that the confined warm box intensifies the smell about 10 fold, so that may help?


good luck!

Might be the only co**** of action left open mate but there are other options they might try first force feeding might be a last resort
