my 1st ever clutch laid around 3 weeks ago now and 8 out of 12 are eating fine but 4 just wont eat, iv tried everything, braining, leaving it in the enclosure but these dont seem to work. they do strike at the pinkie but only in self defence as they dont seem to get that its actually food. any more tips would be welcome

Have you tried scenting?

That sometimes works. Find a friend or neighbour with a hamster or rabbit and rub a few pinkies on the hair

Just be careful how you word it - another forum member asked to borrow he son's gerbil for that purpose but he thought she meant she wanted to feed his gerbil to the snake! xxx
