    I'm Sad/Proud to say...

    My BP has lost his strike. He's so tame now that he simply coiled around the F/T when it accidentally slipped from the tongs and fell onto him. I'm pretty sure if it hadn't slipped, he would've just begun to eat it without even coiling. Has anyone else's BP lost their strike?

    I'm working on a Snake Tracker App! If you have any ideas or suggestions on features, feel free to post them in the Development Thread! I'll also be posting updates on the development of this program in this thread!

    Not my BP, but today my 18 month old BRB decided not to strike or coil his f/t rat. Granted, he's in shed, which I didn't realize when I thawed his rat. I did the "zombie dance" with the rat, and the BRB just sniffed around the rat until he found the head, and then he opened his mouth and started swallowing.

    Hahaha, I'm all for having a fierce little snake, but come on. No fight left to at least strike? :[

    I was laughing all the while he was sniffing up that rat. And then it slipped and he was like oh snap! I guess I have to get used to having a puppy dog tame snake now.
