Haha pretty much. The messed up part was he didnt bother to kill it first. He just started swallowing it as it was squeaking all the way down. I swear i heard it squeak inside him too when he yawned to reset his jaw lol. It's like 'omg, that snake just squeaked like a mouse!!' Not too worried since it was just a pinkie mouse but once he is big enough to eat stuff with teeth, he is getting switched to FT.

Lol yeah, he wasnt messing around. He saw dinner, he grabbed dinner, he ate dinner. He obviously didnt get the memo from Ted Nugent that 'you gotta kill it before you grill it' :rage:

He seems to like it as he was more than happy to go up to the top perch when i showed it to him while on his other perch. He then promoted to eat another pinkie mouse and now is back to sleeping under the heat.

I do kind of a loose quarantine. I have separate utensils and everything for the GTP and do stuff last for him. I know he is mite free but i just wiped down the outside of the cube as a preventative.
I've been rather lucky with all my snakes. The only snake that got mites was Luna and that was from me bringing home a hitchhiker i think as she was fine for a few months before that. I ended up moving her upstairs and treating her for 3 months and doing preventative on my other snakes. Everyone else was fine. I'm guessing it was because i usually wipe down the outsides of all my cages every 6 months with PAM just in case.
And yeah, i bet your snake will love a cube. A handful of people told me you have to use tubs for neo GTPs. Then there were a handful of others who said it depends on the snake and whether the owner can provide the correct husbandry in a bigger cage. Pat HATED the 6 qt tub. He wouldnt perch on the plastic coat hangers and spent the night grounded under the paper towels. Then I moved him into the 24 qt tub and he kind of liked it i guess. He perched and stuff. Then i said screw it, i know what I'm doing with snakes and set up his 18x18x18 cube and he has been doing great(knock on wood). Eating, pooping, pissing and did the shed last night. Was awesome seeing him hiding inside one of the plants this morning and then after i misted the cage, he crept up through the middle of the plant up to his top perch, took a drink and then curled up under the heater lol.
