Very new to this game and forgot to ask the dealer how to heat up a pinky for a hatchling.
At the moment I have tried putting it into a ziplock bag and immersing it into water heated to about 38C. This seems to work but is a pain to do and so far she hasn't taken it yet and it is still in the cage in the morning.
The first time I put it in the mircowave for 10 seconds at 50% power but that just cooked it instantly.
Any tips or tricks that people use would be most welcome.
Last time I offered her food she came straight out and tasted the air and sniffed all over it but just would not take it, she seemed very interested but I dont know if there is something about having it in the water that she doesn't like. Last feed was at the dealers 12 days ago. I offered her on day 7 and then again on day 10.
Any advice?
