Missed strike?

How big are your snakes? Fuzzies are tiny. You might try larger prey. How are you heating them up too? Are you using a blowdryer right before you feed? That also helped me get a few of mine eating F/T more easily.

Well they are only about 18" and when i got them they were 50 grams now they are 60 grams. I was going to bump Kira (the one who takes f/t) to a small mouse maybe a medium if they aren't too big. I am putting them in warm water to un thaw then using the hair dryer/ blowdryer to warm them up.

When holding the mouse by the scruff of the neck, don't your snakes usually coil up around the tongs as well? After all, at least for my snakes, the neck area is where they usually bite.

Never had that problem but I am using hemostats and if that is happening they slide right out after they strike and coil.
