All my boys and girls went on a diet for about a month, and were eating, but very sparingly. I wasted so many thawed mice and chicks, it was driving me nuts. They all even shed during that period, but still only took one animal after the shed!
Finally, four days ago, they were all refusing their regular foods again......until I cut the legs off of two chicks, and offered one to each snake. That did it! They grabbed the legs like they were starving, and then proceeded to eat a couple of animals each. I'll be feeding them all again tomorrow, starting with chick legs. (Yes, the bigger snakes can nearly inhale the legs, but it gets them started; that's what matters.)
I'm excited; have another permit application submitted for adding a four-year old girl to my family....
