Leliana the BEL, progression thread

Very nice man! Love BELS so much i just produced some baby ones :)

Thank you! :) And that's awesome! Not many big breeders actually produce BELs anymore, so its good to see more being hatched :)

She's growing like a weed now that she's eating again!

Oh I hope my lil guy/girl turns out as cut as lelhttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/a2ajebyg.jpg

What a lovely baby! I'm sure he or she will be just as cute :)

She hit a massive growth spurt recently, she is 513 grams now! I think she was still a little full, as she didn't take a big poop just a little one. But still!

She's in shed! It's hard to tell from the pictures, but her eyes are a little glazed over and she is very pink!

Well because she refuses f/t and eats live, there's always risk of her getting injured. Sadly, last feeding after she struck and coiled the rat was able to scratch her and get a little bite in. I am trying fresh killed last week. But considering, these injuries are very mild from what rats can do. Just take this as a warning, even if you are watching injuries are possible.

But, she is now as big as her future mate, they are both hovering around 600g :) Which means she should be surpassing him soon. She's only about three weeks younger than him :)

Also have you every tried FT (just leaving it un the tank on warm spot) by morning they usually will be gone!

Thank you! And I have tried that, she ignores it all night no matter what I do :/ I am going to try fresh killed this feeding day, then hopefully swap her back to f/t after that!
