    Maja about gave me a heartattack !!

    So my little Bumblebee Maja is a really good eater. Breeder started her on live mice hoppers, I fed her large ASF pinks (all i had then) and she took it all !!
    4 days ago I tried a live normal rat fuzzy (big one, almost pup) and she nailed that too quickly.

    Shes been cruising for 24 hours looking for food, sheesh, and I just got the Frozen rats in today. So I thawed out a pup and it was finally ready. I blowdried it a big and thought I'd just lay it in front of her hide for her to "think about". well, the pup hardly hit the ground when she had come shooting out of there and grabbed it.
    SHEESH, gave me a heartattack, LOL. Didn't expect that with her first f/t one...watching her eat it now.

    I can only hope the other BP's I'm waiting on will be that easy ! I know 2 of them are already on rat pups (live) , one of them the breeder will try to switch from mice hoppers to rat fuzzies now.

    Still waiting on the weather to cool down before 2 of them can be shipped, the Pastel het Clown I'm picking up locally after setting up my rack today.

    I have 2 bumblebees that are fast eaters too. You kinda have to be careful opening the tub and dangling the rat because they would jump out of the tub to grab the rat right off of your hand! They're very accurate with the kill as well, which is a relief because their dad - the spider - has bad aim.

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!"

    nothing wrong with her aim either, thank god, LOL.
    Boy, she ate it fast and now her head is sticking out of her hide. I never had the problem of worrying about OVER feeding. That lil thing is a bottomless pit...
