Got Eastern Hognose to eat a pinky!

I have kept hognoses for 25 years. I primarily have kept western hognoses, but I have also kept Mexican and eastern hognoses (although, I haven't had an Eastern for about 10 years).

I got a young Eastern about 3 weeks ago, and had been feeding it extremely small toads. I thawed out a pinky, and changed the water I was thawing it in 2 times. I then warmed up some chicken broth, and soaked the pinky for 30 minutes. Then, I put the pinky in a small Tupperware container with a frozen/thawed baby toad on top (thanks to the guy for suggesting this from whom I bought the toads). I figure I tricked him into thinking it was a toad. I'll keep feeding him amphibians as well, but this makes it a little easier.
