the dealer said that he had great success with tree frogs, so we bought one to feed it with. Well, the tree frog is alive and growing very well at our local nature center, however the baby boa never ate and eventually starved to death, even with force feeding from an expert. I will try the live pinkie if the smaller living container described above doesn't work, but I am really trying to avoid the feeding live. I am too much of a softie to watch the baby mouse crawl around and squeak.
