HAHAHAHAHA I loved that darn movie! It's really sad to be a grown woman with 4 kids and waiting rather impatiently for Shrek 3!

Some of you may not like to picture this, but sometimes if you have a snake that is uninterested in a rodent, you can make a small cut in its forehead, and it will attract the snake more. I used to have a corn who did not eat until I offered it a "brained" meal. I have also done it with one of my young balls while trying to switch from crawlers to rat pups.
