Technically not an eating photo, but this is her right after swallowing her dinner. [emoji846]

Re: Photos of snakes eating
Dante, pretty proud of this guy finally eating on his own. Seems he does not like small meals, would not take hoppers, fuzzies etc. That is a medium mouse. I know it's a big bulge, but this is what he would take, bulge was down in 2 days of laying in his hot hide.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...66e06b41fd.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...ed1333e2cf.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...ed39d73947.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...372a52a1de.jpg

Hahaha! Yeah I only got enough guinea pigs to offer one every 3-5 feedings. She'd be morbidly obese if she ate one of these every week

I've tried... she drags it all over the place and ends up traveling half the cage. I just brush pieces off as I see them getting close to her mouth. She inevitably eats a couple small pieces on occasion but aside from keeping her exclusively on paper there's not a whole lot I can do with a 9', 15lb snake. If I can remove noticeable pieces I absolutely do though. If the feeder is mostly dry it's not much of an issue though

Re: Photos of snakes eating
He skipped a meal because we were traveling for Christmas... apparently he was a little too eager to eat and forgot how?

This is how I dispose of my retired rat male breeders, this is Lucy, my 2 year old 50% Japea dwarf albino retic. That rat is as big as they come, probably nearly 2 years old. He was replaced by younger males. (Euthanized with CO2). Don't let this photo fool you, she weighs well over 30 pounds now!

Re: Photos of snakes eating
Just a few from today, atlas has moved up to small rats as he has a good girth on him and almost 500g. Another from my new baby, enchi het clown Hades taking his first meal with me. And Dante, continuing to do great.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...6b4f1e20e1.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...c522299770.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...0f1517846c.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...ad0915c4bf.jpg

He just knocked back a quail and gives me the “signal” that he’s ready for his rat pink, too. He always looks at me and opens his mouth when he thinks I should be feeding him but am taking too long. Never seen another snake do this!
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...e16cb3dea8.jpg
Also, when in feeding mode, his pupils dilate like Spongebob! So interesting. Can’t wait to watch him grow.

Here's a photo of my male Super Dwarf Purple Albino retic eating a jumbo rat. This is the biggest rat I've ever tried to feed him. All I can say is WOW!

He is probably 2.5 years old, not sure how long he is but here's a photo of his whole body. I'm 6'4" for comparison:

Photos of snakes eating
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...eedbfeda6b.jpgHere’s a picture of my Bumblebee Het G-Stripe Lily Dragon. She’s a great eater, and has an amazing feeding response. I’ll have to be careful with her when she’s older because she likes to come out of her tub to grab the rat [emoji28]. I’m very proud of her, because she was a live feeder when I bought her, and she switched over to f/t her first feed with me!!
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...3a32b87fe0.jpgThis is an old picture of my big Normal het Albino boi Pua. He’s and outstanding eater. I named him correctly! He’ll almost always eats (our first reject was 2 weeks ago but he was a n g e r y cause he was in blue, which is weird cause this fat boi has taken in blue) and will take pretty much anything. He doesn’t even need his rat warmed, he’ll take his supper thawed and cool!(I always give him warmed rats, but there have been occasions where I’ve let the rat cool off after heating it up because I was busy and I didn’t have time to heat it up again. He takes em no problem!)

She worked for 20 minutes to get it down the wrong way when it usually takes 5 to get it down the right way....

Re: Photos of snakes eating
Here’s a video of my girl’s last feeding. Sorry for the flicker in the beginning. Apparently slo-mo and fluorescent lighting don’t mix well. Fluorescent lights have a slight flicker that the human eye doesn’t notice under normal conditions. Once she strikes, the rest is in time lapse and the flicker is gone.
