    Olive's Feeding

    Hey!

    So I've had Olive for about two weeks now and since then she's eaten twice (last week was the first), and then today she ate another size small mouse.
    Since she's still pretty new and is eating really well, does that mean she is pretty comfortable now?
    She took this mouse in less than 10 seconds which was great, and she seems hungry.
    Hope this isn't a dumb question... ha

    An eating snake is a happy snake! Personally, I always wait 3 feedings before starting handling, though. But it is a great sign, and i'm glad shes doing so well! I want to see pictures when you start handling her!

    I've actually been holding her quite frequently, and since she's been eating I was curious to see if she was handling it alright. I can't do pictures right now as my phone isn't working, but I definitely want to!!
