    I'm that guy that just doesn't know.
    pretty sure Ragnar (my other BP) is just a "normal". and I knew Freyja was different than him, but without the label from the breeder, would have never known what.

    and other than general curiosity, don't really need to know either.

    Freyja finally ate!!

    breeder said she was already on F/T.
    first 2 attempted feedings she acted scared of it.
    3rd one she acted somewhat interested, but never ate it.

    today i was getting frozens from Ragnar and talking to my supplier.
    he spotted me a love fuzzy to try.

    She attacked and swallowed that one!
    soni may have to work on swapping her to F/T.

    got a pretty cool shot of her while feeding today
    (By the way, I'm really loving my rat breeder these days. let him know the snakes' weights when ordering and he chooses the rats for them specifically)
