    Re: Here i'm doing backflips trying to get a BP to feed...Boa feed video

    I'm learning to really appreciate a good eater too! My BP has never refused a feeding and nails it right away.

    What's funny to me is how "into" eating she is. I feed her in a clear tub and it's beside my computers/tv in my office. Haha, you can walk by, talk, tv going, etc. with her looking at you as she's eating and she could care less. It's great!

    Then there is my Dumeril..sigh..didn't think I'd ever get him to eat right. He is a very timid eater. It was hit or miss with him eating (usually refused) and I finally had to put the f/t in his tank and just leave it there. The first time it took him about 14 hrs to show interest and eat it. I'm happy to say now as soon as I put it in he's eating it within about 5 mins...we're getting there

    Thanks for the video! Was great to watch and hear the kids in the background enjoying it too

    My Dum was the same way. He was a real shy eater for about the first 6 weeks after I got him. Then all of the sudden, he turned into a demon spawn on feeding day and now he is my most aggressive feeder. You gotta love a boa with a good appetite...
