So Ive had my male pastel for 2 weeks on friday, hatched July 4th. He has responded fantastically to being in my care, much to my suprise! I thought I would have more trouble being a new BP caregiver. Anyway, I decided to feed him for the first time on saturday evening. I fed him two F/T fuzzy mice. The store didnt have small mice so I fed him two of these. He hammered both of them down, then yesterday (tuesday) I decided to feed him again a day early. I fed him two more fuzzies (I got a pack of 6 on saturday) and he nailed those down amazingly. Afterward he stayed in an attack ready position and refused to move from where I was feeding him. So I thawed out another fuzzy and he absolutly nailed it down. I am so proud of how well he has been feeding! He hasnt missed a strike yet except for when I accidently dropped the fuzzy as he was about to strike and he hit the tongs. I am such a proud parent.

I dunno what Im gonna do with the 1 fuzzy I have left. I am gonna get some small adult mice for next feeding and should I give him the 1 fuzzy also if he will take it? I dont know his weight yet, I just bought a scale on ebay and am waiting for it.

Thanks for any responses.
