I think Feliz is really settled in now. I fed him 5 days ago, a week after he arrived, but a small meal (a 10G hopper). As reported that night, I had dangled, but he didn't come out. So I laid it down in front of his hide and he came out fairly quick, grabbed it, and ate it. I want to get him on the Sunday schedule with everyone else, so I offered tonight, but a more reasonable meal for him (a 14g hopper).
He had his head sticking out of his warm hide, but when I opened the door to his enclosure, he pulled it back in his house. I dangled the mouse in front of his hide for all of 2 seconds and BAM! Wrap and coil! F/T is a non issue with this guy! He had the mouse down pretty quick and was back in his warm hide.
Frankly, I couldn't see him in the hide and he struck so hard and fast, it scared me a little bit. I'll take that every day and twice on Sunday though. Love a good food response. I think last week he was still settling in. Not so much anymore. He seems pretty happy and good to go now.
