About the color of the mice, best I can say is that I fed a different color and animal with the chick. So far as colored rats go, I believe she is to small for a live rat and I do not have access to those since PetCo does not let me choose the color of F/T animals.
To the shedding person, yes I know when they shed they poop. She shed for me twice, first time was a terrible shed, second time was perfect. So I expect her to lose weight but I do not want her to be on the edge of death before I decide to force feed her.
Her/Him? The original owner purchased the snake with the seller already having it sexed as a female.
To the person saying do not feed today. I am still going to because since she was shedding I literally only held her twice this week, once to clean the cage and earlier after I found out she was in shed. So all things considered, I did not extenuate her no where near as much as the first month and a half.
So far as husbandry conditions. She does spend a good 3 hours trying to find an exit to the cage. Which she never has gotten out on her own, thus the idea of I did it before is not in her head.
The force feeding question is when should I?
How small in weight can a 31" female snake get before I should do such a thing?
