They're about the stage where I would assist feed. When I do assist, I use rat pinkies. Hopefully, you can get them jump started. This year, I had only a few that I assisted and only had to do it once. Last year I had a little baby albino in a boob egg that I had to assist a dozen times before he ate on his own. He came out at only 37 grams.
If you do assist feed, hopefully you can find someone with experience to help you. If not, just be calm and confident when doing it. Before assisting, I'd go with one more attempt with mouse hoppers, just to be sure. Good luck.
