Very sad to report that the Mexican pine did not make it. He was not eating readily for me and figured it would just take more time than the kingsnakes, who did eat right away. After 3 weeks of not eating (offering from tongs/leaving overnight), I decided to force feed a small pinky to at least get some food in him. I am very experienced in force feeding and only resort to it when necessary and I have never had an issue. Today I found him not alive. Never had any signs something was more wrong than a troublesome eater. I am incredibly bummed as this was a species I was really excited to keep.
I did end up getting refunded for the extra shipping charge, as a side note.
