Feed them alternately so if one refuses it can be offered to the other.

Yeah, if you can give a home to a corn, they're a great help - and plenty of adults for sale on preloved. Even better would be a gopher or a bull; these can manage a small rat - watch this guy with a rabbit!

They're fabulous snakes too, though need more room than corns.

Got Ziska on standby tomorrow.
