Not a snake but

[motorherp]

someone may be able to help! I'm trying to put a bit of bulk on my fat tail gecko so I thought I would try getting her to take a f/t pinkie mouse . I got it with tweezers and waggled it at her she looked for a moment then tried to grab it [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] but as soon as she got it in her mouth she dropped it. I tried a few times and she dropped it everytime [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_frown.gif[/img] I thought the hard part would be to get her to strike not the eating. Anyone got any ideas?

Live pinkies worked every time for me. They're far too young to hurt the gecko at all.

Can't get them over here pet shops aren't allowed to sell live mammals for feeding purposes. The only way is to breed your own and that would be a bit of effort for one gecko! Thanks though [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]
