It might take more than two weeks for them to get accustomed to their new home.
Yearling diamonds should be eating more than a pinky.
I started our hatchlings on hopper mice. If he doesn't take that try a pinky rat. Some diamonds prefer the smell of rats than mice.
8 hrs of uv is quite sufficient.
Let us know how you go.....be patient....and good luck!! |
