    Feeding Night

    Had a blast feeding my snakes tonight everyone ate there f/t Rats with no problems I'm happy about that, almost done had my Matrix Short tail Borneo left. I looked at him and had a feeling I was gonna get Bit and I did this is my first snake bite from my Bloods I just stayed calm and had the mouth wash handy just for this reason he let go before I vould get the bottle open and he seemed bummed out but took his Rat Like he was starving and it all worked out. This was another hands on lesson for me........

    Sounds like you need a bigger pair of tongs lol, I don't put my hand in the cage for most of my snakes on feeding day as some of them are quite eager grabbers.

    Feeding Night

    Theses are the main tools that I use to feed, depending upon who is eating and how aggressive they seem to acting that day.

    24 inch Hemostats on top from ebay

    16 inch Hemostats

    18 inch Tongs from eBay.

    The shorter the device, the more control you have.

    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    1.2 Coastal Carpet Pythons
    Mack The Knife, 2013
    Lizzy, 2010
    Etta, 2013
    1.1 Jungle Carpet Pythons
    Esmarelda , 2014
    Sundance, 2012
    2.0 Common BI Boas, Punch, 2005; Butch, age?
    0.1 Normal Ball Python, Elvira, 2001
    0.1 Olive (Aussie) Python, Olivia, 2017

    Please excuse the spelling in my posts. Auto-Correct is my worst enema.
