    Has this ever happened to you?
    This big girl always gets overanxious at feeding time. Today she jumped out ot the bin when I opened it and snatched the rat right out of my hand.

    I have one female that will do that only for rats. She'll eat mice don't get me wrong, but she will go nuts for a big juice rat. Gave her one last night and same thing lol.

    Yup I have a couple that do that. In fact, I have to use a lid from one my rubbermaids just to open the tub and keep the snake inside long enough for me to offer the food. It keeps you on your toes. ;) :rolleyes:

    It's a Vision rack. I hear most people up north don't like 'em cause they don't stay as warm as a fully enclosed, but it works great for me here in south florida.

    When Zoltan was a babe he once snatched a live rat from between my fingers.

    Scared the heck outta me, but was over before I even knew it had started.

    Gotta love that killer feeding response. :gj:
