    The pickies....two of my biggest girls are on and off eaters, one of my normals has always been pretty picky, and my spider will only eat mice. My new little Pin girl and one of my big girls will only take live though. Makes them picky in my book since I pretty much only feed f/t.

    The garbage disposals: all my colubrids and bull snake, all my boas, my Angolans, Bloods, and most of my newest younger BPs are strong eaters too. My little coastal has never refused a pinky/fuzzy rat and my retic will eat only if she's not in shed.

    Overall: I'm pretty lucky to have some good eaters.

    My picky eater is my butter male. He won't eat unless it a live mouse and the lights have to be out. My only snake in my collection that won't eat rats or FT, he is a pain!
    By far the BP that will eat anything anytime is deff my big pastel male. He would eat everyday if I fed him that much!

    I would say over half of my snakes have and do, eat in shed.

    If nothing ever changed, there would be no butterflies.

    My spider is a hog. She's 7 months old and already 1000g. She gets an appropriate sized rodent every 5-7 days, and has only ever missed a meal once.

    Our lesser pastel on the other hand, is a picky little jerk. He'll only eat mice and then only when he feels like it.

    Pain in the butt feeders:

    My best eaters are also my biggest girls--for good reason! Pastel, butter, and two normals. They let me know when it's feeding day and always come flying out of the bin.

    I have a young het pied girl who refuses to eat when there is a hide in her bin, two males who will not touch food from dec-feb/mar and the rest of them are not too bad, miss a meal here or there.

    1.0 Spider
    0.1 Pastel
    1.1 Het Pied
    0.1 Butter HOG
    1.0 Pastel HRA HOG
    0.1 Cinnamon
    0.1 Bumblebee
    1.0 Pewter
    1.0 Calico
    0.1 Yellowbelly

    Also a female BCI and an adorable tiny hognose.
