So from my other thread, I have 2 healthy pastels and 3 healthy normals (Waiting on 4 to come out.)

I weighed in my normal and she's at ~1750, no rat in her. Up from 1400 after laying. (haven't weighed her for 2 weeks and I might be incompetent with the scale since she usually moves a lot.) This is up from her last year's starting breeding weight of 1600, so I'm glad that she's growing. I know she doesn't care, but I tell her she's gorgeous, because, she is. I know she's a normal with a weird personality, but I don't care.

Male Pastel *finally* ate last week and is up to ~1500-1600 (moving around) from about a 2 month hunger strike. (assist feed 2 weeks ago, because I was getting nervous...) Scolded him today, told him to eat more. He should weigh more than my female being older... *sighs*

And my male normal is going into breeding mode and went on hunger strike. No signs of shed, and just stared at the rat (he usually hunts down the rat). I'll try again on Saturday (since sometimes he has fixed days of the week he'll eat. Weirdo.), but I think the change in light tells that it's time.

Since my female normal is back up to weight, looking pretty with her usual colors and staring down the male ball pythons ALL week, nonstop, not even going into the warm spot, I'm letting her breed again. I'm giving the male pastel a shot for a few days, though I probably will breed him less this year because I'm super nervous about him losing weight, even though he doesn't look unhealthy.

She was so into it, she stopped trying to escape from the enclosure and was checking him out with her tongue. =P

Hoping to buy a female cinnamon this year I've waited years and years for...
