I am going on saturday to collect 5 new baby corns. I have been told that these snakes are fussy feeders and I think they are being force fed at the min. I have been reading alot about this how to get the pinkies smelling like tuna ect. I have also been reading how to forec feed. These are going to be a good project for me and my hubby has kept snakes for years so I have a bit of help, but I a sure I will be on here alot over the next year or so. I will post pictures when I get them settled in. If any one has any advice on feeding or goodways to settle them in I would be more than happy to get some advice. Thanks

hope it all goes well. i've been assist feeding 4 hatchlings, one has started eating on her own now. would be better if someone with experience of force feeding can show you how it's done in person. it can be stressful and take months to get them eating on their own. let us know how you get on
