    Finally ate F/T
    I am so dang proud, after a few times of struggling and getting live and getting mice bedding and dealing with the smell (eugh) Nicky finally ate his first frozen thaw rat for me and I feel so happy right now. Now all I gotta do is keep him on it and he'll be set.

    I've also found a possible snake sitter who will gladly care for him while I am away in the Military. Meeting with her at her place tomorrow to hang out and talk.

    Things are looking up!

    Yeah! I was so shocked he took it I almost dropped my tongs and nearly forgot to wiggle it some to make him feel like he is choking it haha, but it went well, he ate it after sitting there for a bit after I backed of to give him some privacy.
