Probably more excited than I should be =P
Today I finally kicked Otis's mousies up a notch and fed him his first fuzzy meal! He took it like a champ, it's definately the perfect size for him ^__^ Not the most exciting news a person could have, but considering I've been afraid of killing him since I've gotten him, I'm pretty psyched about this small milestone =) Now if only the little brat would shed for me!!! =P
Re: Probably more excited than I should be =P
The first feed is so awesome. So much tension going on but then it finally works out for the good. That's a good feeling.
Re: Probably more excited than I should be =P
Sometimes it's the little things. If he is doing well (and it sounds like he is) you should be happy and proud! Enjoy, and keep in mind BP's can swallow a much large meal than you would ever expect, but I DO NOT recommend it! Keep it simple, keep it smart! And keep up the good work!
Take Care,

Thanks guys! I appreciate it ^_^
It was to the point that he couldn't even constrict the pinkies because they were just too small, and he would swollow them down in less than 2 minutes. I think I was being a little TOO careful to not overfeed him, especially since he was getting so FAT! =P
Re: Probably more excited than I should be =P
Congrats on the progress!! Keep up the great work.:D
It is nerve racking to some degree until you see the first feed. I just got in a pastel 1.0 the other day. Giving him his space right now for at least 2 weeks to settle in before I offer a treat. I'll wait to roll the dice till then and hope to hit some good feeding response. :rolleyes:
