May take a few times before they get the hang of it but dangle the pinky infront of them get them to take notice then pending on if your feeding live or f/t put on the ground they may not take it the first few tries but eventually they will get it.

Well, the only way I was able to make Draco to start getting interested in the frozen fuzzies was putting them on the water while he was swimming. He really liked to attack the floating thing, and now, I just have to put one in front of him for a fast bite.

Seriously ...you have to get them hungry ...hold food off for a day or 2....then introduce them to the mouse again. I hold the pinkie by the tail and cause it to wiggle slightly while on the floor area of the enclosure....early morning when they are hungry.

Do not break down and give them their favotite food if they don’ eat it. Try later or the next day.
I know that is hard to do ...but it works.
