About how big would you say Feliz is now?
Feliz is about 250g now.

I'll advise if I do what I did for Behira - a drape, but I'll see if it continues.
Man, these Boas are ravenous!
"Teenagers"! The same everywhere...:rofl: Just can't fill them up. :snake:
Re: Feliz - Venezuelan "Dwarf" BCC
Feliz weighed in at 270G dry yesterday. I'll post pictures soon, but he's doing great.
Re: Feliz - Venezuelan "Dwarf" BCC
WOW - Feliz is the most aggressive feeder I have. He's nuts.
Today, he struck as soon as I offered, and not only did he strike, he grabbed and wrapped in no time. In the process, he ripped the rat pup (F/T) off the tongs and left me holding a big piece of skin (on the tong tips). I was holding the rat by the neck - not an appendage. That's a first for me.
Re: Feliz - Venezuelan "Dwarf" BCC
I've often had bits of skin or fur attached the tongs where they been too fast to release them, glad he's eating so well dave

LOL. Yeah, it caught me off guard Rich.
I think I am going to move him up to weaned rats soon. The rat pups are getting a little small for him. I need to be careful though. Nothing too big. He is a BCC and although the Venezuelan BCC are supposedly not prone to regurgitation syndrome and are more like BI, I don't want to risk it.

Agreed and I am still feeding weekly and he is growing like a weed. Maybe wait a bit.
