So, for the first time I decided to give Tenac 2 mice. He is growing a lot, and I wanted to make sure that this time he was fed. My local pet store has "Mouse Cards" They are like milk cards, or coffee cards, I buy 10 mice and get the 11th free. My card was full so I was like now is the time to see if he is man enough.
He chomped on both RIGHT AWAY. Great feeding response and awesome strikes. I feed in a separate container, so when he was done with the second, I picked him up to bring him back into his enclosure and he was CONSIDERABLY more heavy. This guy was stuffed.
Anyway, he seems to be holding them down well, but I have seen him do something he never usually does. He is stretching out and moving around. He is full to brim and trying to help the process along ... that's a cool site to see him so fat and happy.
When I get my next snake (from Heather) I will be switching a few things, and putting him in a rack and feeding him in his enclosure as to not upset his full belly. I will also start breeding rats to help with the food costs and to make sure the meals they are getting will be of the highest quality.
Anyway .. just thought I would share my fun day. It was cool to see him so eager to eat and with such skill. Snakes are cool animals.
