There’s a product called "Lizard Maker" you can try. I’ve also heard of people using tuna water, chicken broth, and, I kid you not on this: hot dog water. Why that last one works I have no idea!
What are your temps? My understanding is they like it cooler than the North Americans, but I have no actual experience with them. I’ve got the other two genera, but nothing South American.

One trick that might be worth mentioning: my Leioheterodon likes his mice blown with a hairdryer until they stink, then he goes crazy for them.
