I am a new snake owner. What do you do with live pinkie mice & rat pups that aren't eaten? I have a 4 month old Milk Snake that supposedly eats live pinkies and a new Ball Python that eats live rat pups. I tried to get the Milk Snake to eat and no go. I ended up freezing the pinkie. I just got the Ball Python and he is still getting used to his new home. He won't eat the 2 live rat pups that I bought. One of the rat pups has already died. Any suggestions?
