The babies are eating well.

What’s the substrate ??

Did you pull the bits of that pinkie ?

I feed on pieces of bark or card to minimise them swallowing substrate but even then you see bits on the food - I’ve pulled tiny bits of with tweezers in the past - never tried with Kings or Higgies though :)

I agree! That looks to be splintery wood chips, & if swallowed, can be bad news (perforated gut comes to mind). I'd not use that for substrate, or at LEAST feed on "plate".

The substrate is aspen chips. They usually fall off as the snake swallows, so I don't bother picking at them.

They don't splinter at all, actually. The wood is soft and smooth to the touch, quite nice to run your hands through imo. Not nearly as rough and pointy as cypress mulch. Plenty of hognose breeders use aspen chips without issue.

Not that it matters, but I usually use tongs and let my snakes strike midair. Sometimes they like to drag their food through the substrate though.

Ahhh.. well aspen chips look better than normal aspen ... I still prefer darker substrate for my brightly coloured snakes :)

Caught Eggroll out cruising last night right before I went to bed...

When I adopted her in early April she weighed 241g, her last weigh in was August 09 @ 543g so she's growing quite a lot.

Brought Tyson out for a few festive fall photos. My yard is pretty well covered in autumn leaves, by next weekend the trees will be bare...https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...1df573c6a7.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...2fe41c825d.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...bc46fb0941.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...ea10cfead4.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...943aa4b879.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...7f9d1c6645.jpg
