    Nom Nom Nom!

    I got my albino from my good friend Patrick of Action Reptiles. Of course he advised me that she had only eaten about 3-4 meals with him, and they were all live. I got impatient and excited and decided to take her off his hands regardless lol. So, she's been eating live mice for me once every 5-6 days. I'm hoping to switch her to f/t very shortly, as soon as she puts a little more weight on. But she's eating the a fiend! She got a perfect strike and coil last night, so I had to snap a picture. I don't usually like to take pics of them eating, but it was too perfect not to


    She's a piggy, let's just hope it continues

    (P.S.) The mouse was already dead when the picture was taken, it was a quick death

    Hehe! My newest girl eats live at the moment as well, but hopefully after some pre-kill experiences she'll switch over. That's one beautiful albino, btw!

    I haven't prekilled yet...I've been able to switch from live to scented f/t rats a few times so hopefully she's just as receptive as the others lol. And thanks! She really is high contrast, the dang flash washed out her colors

    I love it when they eat so easily My latest took F/T very easily she had 4 meals at the breeder and they were all live she was in hunt/ambush mode day 4 here so I offered F/T rat and BAM and she still eats like a pig so it couldn't hurt to try and see if it works. Especially with a baby with a good feed response alrady she may just take it no problem
