YAY for Tubs.....

[Kristy]

Okay so last sunday I switched houdini over to a tub. He's been in a tank for his whole life, almost 4 years. After me many times over adjusting, readjusting and going through feeding strikes. The last straw, when we moved I had his tank PERFECT. Well apparantly he didn't think it was. He had only eaten once since feb. So I switched, thinking it can't hurt to try the tubs out and well, see for yourself. Oh, and btw, it was hubby's first time playing puppet with a rat lol. Houdini's response, yeah it scared him lol. Sorry for the bad video, low lighting for Houdini to be comfy. After the strike, I turned off the camera, closed the tub and left him for a half hour. No more rat

I know, I was pretty impressed with him, I haven't seen him hit a rat like that since he was just a little guy. Then to take f/t on top of that. It took me 3 years to convert him.

Yay for tubs is right! His strike darn near scared me too! Hope your hubby was using tongs!

Lol Robin, I told him to use the tongs. At first he said it would be fine, I said no you need to use them. He was glad he did. It really scared him. He was shaking afterwords. He loves Houdini but had never fed him before.
