So today was a big day. He had his first shed with me, and that was a one piece shed at that. And just now, I went downstairs to look at him, and I saw him moving around.

I was like, "Wow! he's out of his hide." So I tried to feed him with a F/T mouse. I thawed it with warm water, then with hot water tried it and failed. He did his tongue action at it a couple of times, and I think he realized it was dead and had no interest in it whatsoever. So now I was like, oh well. Then I had an idea. The other day I bought a small mouse that was maybe a little bigger than a hopper home. So I brought that downstairs, threw him in the tub, and within minutes they looked like they greeted each other and STRIKE! A strike straight to the head, I was so astonished, and happy at the same moment. Within minutes he took it down, and went into his hide. I am happyyyy and feel like a load is off my shoulders.
