Re: Rescue: Mystery Revealed!
nice... question:
when something like this happens, do you smile and nod, or do you say "oh, this is coastal carpet python, not a rat snake..."

We quickly explained that it was not a ratsnake. We showed them our three other carpets and explained what it was and where it came from. They still called it a ratsnake after that, but hey, maybe it is a secret new species of ratsnake... remember she did see it on the Discovery channel and they called it a ratsnake too...lol

We are guestimating around 5 feet. Smaller then our other jungle and diamond, but close.( bigger then our coastal). As for feeding the surrender form states "fed four large rats every three to four weeks" also they found out that it will eat frozen thawed. They normally fed it live 99% of the time.
Apperantly she is an eating machine. We'll have to see.
I have found that with our other three they eat anything and everything. Do yours?

Re: Rescue: Mystery Revealed!
Yep ours are voracious eaters - always seem anxious to get the nummies.
It would be a toss-up between the carpets and the bloods as to which group would pound down prey more.
