    As I type this Amy has struck and coiled around a mouse! she's got its head in her mouth right now! Im a little concerned because it seems like she cant take it all in, or do they just eat really slow? its the next size up from a hopper, small but not too tiny either..Amy is like 3-4 months old..I hope she can handle it.

    Last monday I tried feeding her frozen thawed and she would not take it..but this time I got a live mouse and killed it myself and she nailed the sucker..I guess I know what she wants now.
    Im untouchable but Im forcin you to feel me!

    The towel thing isn't necessay as long as they have good hides on the warm and cool side. But congrats on the p/k feeding!

    Congrats on the first feeding! One of my bp's wont eat unless i cover his entire rubbermaid with a towel. He likes it dark and undistrubed.
