Well done on half your collection! That is no small undertaking.
Thanks! The corns were easy, but the BPs are definitely taking their time in switching over...

My next goal is to switch my bps to rats instead of feeding them a herd of mice every week.......we'll see how that goes.
I feed mostly mice, since I breed them myself, but it is nice only having to feed one rat. My het albino girl definitely prefers rats, so I get her a small live one every week... and I just offered Julius the Mojave his first rat, and he took it with GUSTO. One of my BPs is very opposed to rats, however, which is why I decided to breed mice in the first place. Probably better when you're feeding live, anyway, since there's less of a chance the snake will be hurt.
