Managed to get some more anole skin from my local pet shop, so finally been able to get some food down Liana and Checkers' neck. They just won't touch anything that doesn't have anole skin on it o.O
Checkers;
You can just see the anole skin on the head in the second pic. It's only a tiny sliver but it seems to be enough.
And one of Liana. She struck this one very fiercely when she got the scent of the skin, haven't tried her on pinks yet but I hope to soon.

I guess so. Maybe it's some crazy natural throwback thing, the clutch is programmed to go after different prey so they don't compete for the same food. Or maybe my babies are idiots. Just seems strange that out of my clutch, 7 went for mice from the off, 5 had to be started on chicks, and 2 seem to only like lizards. If only I had space for an anole or three o.O |

If you just quickly glance at Lianas picture it looks like she is breathing fire! Took me a couple of seconds to work out it was part of a chick lol. |

It's so good seeing these pics . I know how hard you've tried getting these 2 to eat, so it must be very satisfying watching them finally 'dig in' .
