Baby Balls not eating

I have a pastel and lemon blast who wont take feed on their own. I just got all of my snakes back (I was in Japan for 6 months) and the babies hatched out while I was gone. The people who were watching them have tried several times and several methods and nothing other assist feeding has worked. Any thoughts on anything I should try, I'm pretty much going back to square one on this one.

Ive sometimes had to assist feed hatchlings for a couple of months then all the sudden they start taking on their own

We just had two that had to be assist fed 8 times each before they took the first one on their own. Be patient.

My last two hatchlings took 6 or 7 assists and now they are eating machines, dont know what took them so long to figure it out

In 2011 I had a whole clutch (7) het albinos that had to be assist fed for 2-3 months. I offered food every 4 th day and assisted every other time. Now they eat everything that lands in their tubs.

Thanks a lot guys

Making sure they have a nice hot spot first, then offer food. If they still refuse, then I'd assist feed until they eat on their own. I hatched out a BEL who refused to eat alone for about 3 months. Then one day he ate all on his own and ever since then, he's been a chow hound.

They have a nice hot spot and my lemon blast snaps at sudden heat signatures so I'm very hopeful

First try didn't yield any strikes but they both took 3 pinks assisted and are doing great
