    Re: Welcome Medusa

    Sooooo I don’t know if I mentioned it, but Medusa had been on a hunger fast since October of last year. I was starting to worried, which is why I started handling her to make sure she was still ok.

    Well I am happy to report that she along with Melikhi ate on Saturday.

    She's pretty! I have a picky one that wants a heartbeat, shes almost big enough we can try to wait her out to switch her to F/T, but I want her up to 500g first. Hopefully she eats for you soon!

    They'll drive us crazy if they can! Spotticus (KSB) was also on a long fast - last ate on November 6 and I thought he should be eating after he lost 20 grams but he didn't think so. I finally got him to take a rat pink on Saturday.

    Some snakes can be sooooo frustrating! And "most" of the time, they're okay, but it's worrying about that small percentage that aren't, and not knowing for sure which is which, that drive us crazy. Be strong, everyone.

    Re: Welcome Medusa

    As promised, earlier today, I went and got everyone some din din. Which has been an obstacle because I had a TLIF on 3/14 and recovery had been slow and steady. But instead of a small prekilled rat, I got her the largest weaned live rat they had. Welp 27 seconds in the enclosure, Stuart little was no more. She even slid it in her favorite hide to eat it.

    Around 10:30pm CST, I was looking for something in the shelf where her home is. Guess who slid out like, you rang? Well ma’am if you wouldn’t go off food you wouldn’t be acting like you are starving. But I digress. I am elated she actually ate today.

    Way to go- no more fast, & all the best with your recovery (TLIF) too- (whatever you do, don't copy that emoji-!)

    I think it's very clear that some snakes, even without mirrors anywhere in their habitats, just KNOW they're so pretty & so special that they can just get away with ANY-thing!

    And why do you think they're always sticking their tongues out at us anyway? Oh sure, supposedly they're "tasting the air" & all that...but maybe they've just been sassing us all along? LOL (I think I'd forgive her anyway though- )
