New Arrival
Sanji shed yesterday, and it was even warm enough to take him outside again!
I also went ahead and fed him today. His shed cycle made him 5 days late, and he was so enthusiastic about getting food he literally jumped onto the tongs.

 Re: New Arrival
Great! Fantastic looking specimen! Congrats. Keep an eye on the shelf life on those rodents in the freezer though. Peace. Don't forget to donate to USARK.

Re: New Arrival
Thanks!
I'm at the end of my current shipment and should be ordering some more food soon, so nothing to worry about on that front.

We got our BRB's about the same time and the same size, so I'm curious...
What size are your BRB's now, how often are you feeding them, and what size food?
Also, did both of your's switch to FT easily? I've heard boas in general switch to FT easily but my male simply will not switch...he will only eat live.
It is okay to use pine bedding for snakes.

New Arrival
I don't know how long he is, but he's right around or right over 2', came to me at roughly 1'10".
As far as weight, he came to me at 40 grams and last I weighed him he was 67 grams, but he could be several grams heavier by now. I'll weigh him in about 4 days and see where he's at now.
I'm currently feeding him 5 gram mice every 10 days, but he was started out on 4 gram mice every 7 days for the first couple of months.
I have not switched Sanji to rats yet as he's not large enough. I haven't really had to switch any of my snakes, because I started the BP and BCI out on rats. But I've been feeding the BP mice lately so I may have a struggle there. And all but the BP was started on F/T so no switch there, either.
(Sorry my phone turned and freaked out the app so I've had to do this in bits because it posted prematurely.)

He looked great as usual! Good pics of him too!
The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

She's settling in well! Hasn't gotten nippy with me yet *knock on wood* hahah. How old is your boy? I thought my girl would be bigger for five months... She was the second smallest of the litter, though.
