Since having my Avalanche she has been a very fussy eater. I tried everything from warmed, brained etc. And the only thing that worked was boiled! My dilemma is that she will not bother with warmed, but once boiled she takes it straight away!

Do i carry on trying with a normal pinky and if she doesnt take it boil it? Or do i jyst keep trying with normal even if it means missing weeks worth of feeds just so she takes a pinky that isnt boiled?

I think there's no reason to worry if she's at least eating something

If it were me, I'd carry on with boiled - at least she's eating something!
When she gets big enough, or if you can find pinkies small enough, you could maybe see if she'd take a normal one straight after a boiled?
