I've converted BP's. After doing the wiggle and zombie dance routine, one ate, two did not. I got a mouse, set him up in a small sterilite tub with care fresh bedding for two weeks without cleaning it. Relocated Mr. Rumples to a big tub, complete with wheel and those plastic tube maze things. Put the BP in the little tub with all that mouse smell, offered a ft hopper on tongs and bingo! It worked just as well for the second BP. I had to feed them that way, weekly, for a month, adding in "fresh" smelly bedding. Then I just used the bedding to scent the ft hopper 2 times, and then they took the ft right off the tongs just like everyone else. So it took 6 weeks, and the cost of mouse supplies. If you know someone with mice, you can just get their smelly bedding. At first, I got dirty bedding free from a pet store, but it wasn't dirty enough or enough quantity to do the job.
