beautiful snake =) and why are you wearing gloves just don't want to touch the dead mouse?

Thank you! And yes. I haven't gotten feeding tongs yet so I use a glove. Also I hope the latex-y smell helps in differentiating between my real hand and food.

I thought the same thing lol I thought she was going to get you that first time! My reptiles sometimes get confused if I get my hand too close to their prey. I think it is because my hand is warmer than the dead mouse. I always feed with long needle holders and they seem to miss less often now. Very pretty spidey BTW.

She actually completely skimmed the side of the mouse, which surprised me because she usually gets it the first time so my hand pulled back on instinct. You never really know how fast snakes are until you see it for yourself! And thank you. :]
