Gawd I hope not

No My het Pied female will be a year Old this month and she is like 700+ grams and still pound the food. Where as my het pied male on the other hand is an 05 and he is a real picky eater.

Hope that helps

I have 6 possible het pied females that hatched in 06 and they are all drop dead serious when it comes to feeding time. I fed them last night and barely escaped being nailed like 4 times. They get so wound up about feeding time that they literally leap up and out of their tubs when I pull them open to put the rat in (at other times all but one fiesty girl are all quite calm and nice). They eat live or f/t in any combination. When I feed them live I have to pull the tub open coming kind of from the bottom (so they don't hit me when they jet out) and hold the rat in one hand and a paper towel roll in the other hand. I use the paper towel roll to distract and guide them back into the tub while I am tossing the rat in with the other. It's quite a fun little game that I'm sure is going to be fun when they get to be 3000 grams.

pieds are known to be picky at everyting! Thats why there are not so many crosses with them.

That's weird. Dunno why pieds would be any different, it's the same snake isn't it? Just different colors?
