i have females and males that will eat when ever food is offered. They love those f\t\sm rats. My female albino on the other hand i have to feed at around 10 at night when she comes out of her hide and starts moving around. Then she nails the f\t\small rat no problem. I also have females and males that have such great feeding response if there still in there hide as soon as the lid is taken off the tub there are already out read to strike. They are putting some real nice weight on them. Going to breed my own rats this year for the snakes.Bare with some of my sentences that dont make sense at first since i add ramdom things to them. Little slow head as well as speaking Portuguese messes with me hahah
