Where can i get live pinks

You really should be posting in the relevant forum topics, but I wouldn't feed live, even with pinkies it could lead them to sticking to live prey only once they're older and you'll get a lot of flack for feeding live prey on these forums as most of us go the frozen/thawed route to prevent injury to our corns.
 
Again you have had this snake four-five weeks you force fed three times. Your snake is stressed. I thought you were waiting a week yesterday before feeding it and today you are looking for live mice. Did you try the boiling water, ivory soap trick????? Live and force feeding two things not to do with a new snake. Please try to listen to our advice.

What she said!!
 
If you boil a pink for a minute in hot tap water and crush the skull you should have no problems getting your corn to take a meal. There is plenty of tricks to try and a lot of them have worked for us so please try what we have to offer rather than just go about it your own way. If you're asking for help then you should probably listen to the advice you receive.
 
I know guys I was just wondering where to got them if the boiling thing doesn't work , I haven't messed with clementine since my last post and I don't plan to until Sunday when I try the boil crush thing
 
you could post a wanted ad on craigslist , just be honest what you need them for. Or maybe a pet shop near you has live pinks. call around. good idea to stay a step ahead.

You don't have to crush the pinkie.
 
David post is very helpful but it kind of scares me to give you this information.
I mean, a method should be tried several times with breaks between (days) before changing to another method. So if you did all of the methods he linked you're talking months not a week for all of them.

I just want to say . Don't rush. To me it's easier to feed a hungry snake than a stressed one.
