Hi!

We've had our female BP for a little while now, and she's eaten for us several times. She's about a year old according to the (I know, I know...) petstore we got her at. She was captive bred but returned by her previous owner who had to move. Anyways, it's been so far a pretty simple road to her settling in. We started her on smallish mice since it's what the reptile guy at the petstore told us she was eating... And she took her meals pretty regularly from the start, but without much interest at first.

Now these last couple meals she's really been hitting and striking and constricting the thing as if it wasn't long dead (F/T), and I realised I might have underestimated her appetite somewhat. She's pretty big, and one mouse seemed a little small to me. We gave her two mice last week, and she downed them like she was starving but ever since then she's been snappy as hell. She struck at us twice from her hide these past few days and the last time we took her out (yesterday, on monday... she gets fed every wednesdays) she seemed a bit edgy and seemed to be on the hunt again. We put her back in without incident but I'm wondering what's going on... My temps are spot-on, so I'm stumped... Now it's almost feeding day and she's sitting in her hide with her head sticking out, staring at us, S-shaped and looking hungry as heck... Bigger mice or what?

Sorry for the novel!
