I would also see about bumping up your ambient room temps. I keep my room at about 77-78, 68-69 may be a bit too cool. Another thing, the pinky may be too small for a 6 month old, try bumping it up to a peach fuzzie or even a fuzzie. My 3 and 4 month old babies have taken their first peach fuzzies, so a 6 month old should have no problem with it.

Are your snakes in a closet or do you keep your whole house at 78? I'd be sweating all day

I do have fuzzies for our other, bigger snake (Rainbow boa) but they seem HUGE. I apparently have no idea what a snake likes because I can't imagine Surge being able to eat a fuzzy. Our Petco and Petsmart don't stock peach fuzzies unfortunately. Common sense tells me that if a snake is hungry, it will eat anything put in front of it, but plenty of people have said they are disinterested in smaller mice. I guess I will try the bigger fuzzy.
Do you buy your mice online or locally? I was just comparing prices at a few sites.
