hello all ... At one time, I used to keep Corn Snakes as well as Garters. For problem feeders I would slit the skull of the f/t rodent squeezing a little of the brain matter out

. I became accustomed to doing so and did it for the garters as well. Apparently this worked so well that when I parted with those garters their new owners reported that they had slight difficulty getting them to feed. They literally had to be weaned from the scent of brain matter.

Enjoy Your Day !!
