    i'm able to now handle her pretty much without a glove. she still strikes but always miss me, and still corkscrew alot but not as much. I'm a little worry that she wont be able to take down bigger preys once she move up in size (I'm feeding her hoopers right now and I feed live). but i have to say i really enjoy having her

    New Tiger Jag Coastal Python

    Jags make some pretty carpets, not sure if the wobble is anything like a spiders wobble. But my spider has a decent wobble when she strikes so she loses pray if its too big, she eats ones a little smaller than the other girl her sized but I found if I gave her one bout 15 grams lighter than the other girls meal my spider doesn't lose ahold of it when wobbling. Idk if that helps you any, my carpet is a costal mutt with no jag issues so she hits like a freight train gone wild lol. Glad your able to handle now their fun to handle that's for sure I love bringing mine our

    My big girl head bunted me twice the other day. I'm thinking she was just hungry.
    Thought she was going to get me for sure :o

    my baby does the headbutt a lot too but today she actually struck with her teeth and it latch on to my sleeve. and these few days it seems like after i handle her for a bit she would start to do the death coil around my hands so much so that my hands turn white. shes been pretty good once i get her on to my hands but is still quite stubborn when i try to get her out of the cage. She would wrap herself around her perch and i have to pry her off of it at the mean time she would be striking wildly at me. i'm few days late in feeding her could it be she's just really hungry thats why she suddenly seem more piss off than few days ago?

    She might be hungry or she might just be acting out.

    My little Jungle girl would hold on and grip so tight, my fingers would turn purple. Her grip in insane. Growing out of it some now.
    My really big girl got my girlfriend the other day :o
    Very grumpy still from laying eggs.

    feed my little girl today. up the size of the prey to a very small baby rat. she was on hopper before. Took her several stuck before she could get a good bite and coil. but she did kill the it and swallowed it fine.

    However.... during the struggle the rat seemed to have got her on the corner of her eye, she was coil so tight i couldn't stick a chopstick in the stop the biting.... looks like she is in shed will she be ok? my ball pythons have been bit my rats before and they heal fine however it not on the eye. I can't really get a good picture right now she is so grumpy striking at everything but the blood appears to on be on the corner of the eye not right on the eye

    She is very pretty! Sigh.... I came so close to picking up a nice IJ female today. Still kinda kicking myself in the rear for not doing it.

    You may have already posted this, but if I may ask, where/from whom did you get her??
