We bought 3 coastal hatchies a couple months back and didn't know at that time (I am a newbie) that they hadn't yet fed!! One feeds well, One has fed assisted a couple times but one isn't even eating assisted, he is loosing weight and we are getting worried now. It is like he can't swallow even the smallest pinkie mouse. We even tried cutting a pinkie in half :'( Can any one help??

I hope someone with more experience chimes in on your thread, I'm just passing on links I have already read, which is where I have got most of my info lately

Cheers
 
Try fuzzies, hatchy Morelia prefer them to pinkies. More smell and more nutrition
