    Exclamation New Girl Eats!!

    For those who follow me! She eats! (Yes i know i only just got her but being a baby and off feed for 8 days and in my care for 48 hours i gave it a shot). Well success... Here are the results these pics show her colors 100% better for those who saw these.





    Don't hate one the terrible photos lol i did not want to get all up in her business while she ate her first meal but, now shes slapping her tongue around the enclosure looking for more.

    Was kind of pissed when i went and bought my F/T mice today though. Wanted small hoppers or large fuzzies cause shes a big girl... He only had like pinkies. They are tiny... she put it down in less than 2-3 mins.

    So question to you all?!
    Feed another small pinky in 3-4 days?

    Cheers Ambien out.

    p.s. she still needs a name

    38 views and no response . That's depressing lol? Well question still un answered. But based on her girth and the fact she ate for me the first time i feel like Thursday i will feed her again seeing how these pinkys seem to be a snack to her =/

    I'm going to check back this weekend and see if he has anything bigger, that's frozen. Also i am going to weight her and measure her girth when i take her out to feed on i think Thursday night. Just so i can get an idea of what she should be eating. Not just listening to some one behind a counter who wants to make a sale and not kill or freeze me some mice.

    Now when you say that would proper educate be. Dangle first pinky watch her devour it and present her with another once the first has reached past her neck and is no longer visually in site?

    I'm sorry that I can't really give you any good answers to your questions, but I can say that your snake is absolutely stunning!

    Though there IS one problem. Why aren't there more pictures?

    Feed her the first pink then after she has finished it and starts flicking her tongue give her another and maybe a third.

    After looking at that first pick again.... I would probably try to give her at least four.

    That snake should be able to take at LEAST hopper mice. I'd be surprised if it couldn't take an adult mouse, just not HUGE ones. I feed all my brand new baby bps adult mice as soon as they come home.

    Nice looking snake by the way, is she a pastel?
