Non-feeder Help!

Great! I would start offering him different choices again, and following up with tease feeding if he doesn't feed himself in an hour. But I'd give him the chance on each feeding. Just the basics; Ivory, Dawn, boiled, brained, maybe chicken or tuna scented. And keep rotating through them. Once he's tease feeding, it's just a matter of time. He will feed himself.
 
Well, I've offered brained, & dawn and its still a no go. So about an hour after I offer those I tease fed, and that worked. Today I offered boiled and he wasn't interested, but I teased him a bit and he ate it! He is getting better though!
 
As much as I've been frustrated with tease-feeding, and tired of it, a tease-feeding baby is still a billion times better than one that refuses even that!!
 
Nanci, I agree!! Tease feeding isn't much of a hassle to me, as I only have 12 snakes, but I'm sure with a larger collection it would be a pain.
