Strudel skipped feeding day last week because she was in blue and still on live, and no way I'm gonna offer a live mouse to a half blind snake, even of she would eat it (not taking the chance). Last couple of days she's been either restlessly cruising her tub during dark hour, or sitting with half her body poking out of her hide in classic wait position, so I figured now was as good a time as any to try.

Struck, coiled, then snarfed that rat pup like a champ. Last I saw of her she was slithering into the warm side hide with a rather nice belly bump, lol. IfI can repeat this success in the next couple of weeks, I'll declare the deal sealed.
