Picky Picky Picky

My little zigzag snow girl is honestly the pickiest eater out there. First she wouldn't eat at all and once i got her eating, it seems that she will only eat pinks bought at a certain store. She wont eat live, and she wont eat them if they have been frozen over a week. What a little bugger! Hopefully she will grow out of this as she gets older

And I thought I had a picky eater with my snow that has to inspect every inch of her mouse while I am holding it. She refuses to eat it if I just leave it in the cage, and she has taken up to half an hour of checking it out before she grabs it.

Try scratching or rubbing the nose of the thawed pinkie. My little snow corn won't touch the pinkie if I don't scratch the nose first. When I do, she eats it right away.

My adult male snow takes FOREVER to eat.. I think he's just shy.. because if I up the pink in the darkest hide they have and put him in it [he's too pyscho for me to put a ink in after him. I like my finger without "shark bites"] he grabs and coils right away.. and stays coiled for a LONG something 20-30 minutes!
