Finding Food Is Difficult

So it's become nigh impossible to find appropriately sized food now that my CA King is big enough for fuzzies. Pet stores rarely have them, if they carry live at all. Ive contacted breeders on craigslist, and none have answered back.

I've simply been feeding her multiple pinkies at once, usually two. Today I gave her three because they were the first available that I found in weeks, and they were born today. They're so small. She has eaten a fuzzy only once, and ate it easily within a span of minutes, if that. I think she's too big for pinkies now. I'd like to switch her off them, because they're not very nutritious.

I can only imagine how difficult it will be to find food for her once she's too big for fuzzies.

Feeding her frozen/thawed would be so much easier, but she absolutely refuses. Scenting, poking the head open, zombie dance... nothing works. She only eats live. I tried again a week ago, no dice.

What should I do?
