    Hog nose
    My silly Hog nose would not eat period, and I was very worried. This is my Trick and it worked I put him in a semi clear tub with Half the bottom News Paper and the other half Aspen. He Hides in the Aspen and on feeding day I put the F/T pinkie on the newspaper and walk away, with in 2 hours its gone then I repeat the steps over same thing In two hours its gone, I am thrilled with this arrangement for now as I want him eating. http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14...6ed56d5b03.jpghttp://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14...fb689be069.jpghttp://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14...b745595373.jpg I put the little caves in and he refused to use them so My main concern is to keep him warm and eating. This baby did not eat for one month so I'm doing the Happy Dance

    Try braining the pinkie. With a tooth pick. Worked for me.

    Congrats - it's always a big relief when you get a stubborn eater to finally take a meal.

    I had a stubborn Sand Boa that I fed the same way. She didn't like to take it off the tongs like my others, so I just left it on a piece of paper and left her in the dark, and she came out and got it when I wasn't looking.

    My little hoggie is on f/t pinks. I give a quick blast with a hair dryer right after they have thawed. Works like a charm and he takes 2 pinks and is looking for thirds.
