Luckily I got my trio captive born. They can still be finicky eaters. I've noticed that they love smaller meal items and I feed my 7.5' adult female 2 small rats a week. I have another 6' female that will only eat mice so I give her 6 or so at a time. In the wild, they eat small, frequent, and varied meals so keep this in mind. I have bright lamps on them 12 hrs a day and they seem to do fine and they even seem to feed better. They all love to be up on top of the branches under the lamps and rarely come down. Try switching up food items: chicks, lizard scenting etc. Good luck.
