Re: Feeding tips

He ate!!

I tried the hot and humid technique yesterday: placed him in a cricket box on a heat mat, with some kitchen roll, a dead pinky and a spa bottle lid of water.

This morning (about 10 min. ago) I opened the box and almost immediately had a well fed, rattling and active cornsnake dangling from the tip of my finger

I expect everything to be ok now.
