Re: First week with my new girl, checking with you all to make sure she is doing well
The 3rd pet store I went to finally had live feeders. They only had mice though. So I got two of those for fear she wouldn't have anything to eat. We stopped at a 4th store after that which does sell small live feeder rats! Yay! So next week I will be at Petland where they believe that snakes should be allowed to eat a live rat if they feel like it. Complete Petmart believes snakes should only be allowed live feeder mice. Petsmart believe that snakes should only eat frozen. It is their "policy" said the girl. And the local little shop in town believe only in frozen for snakes also but for safety reasons.
So today I put two little white mice in with her. She has already eaten the first one and is "hunting" the second one. "Hunting" is that the mouse is asleep in the corner and she is eyeballing it and creeping ever closer ha ha. She pulled the first one into her terra cotta pot hidey hole. So she got a mouse meal today and next week she will finally get the small rat.
