Three causes for celebration. Orochimaru hit 200 grams, he ate a f/t, and had a great shed. I honestly did not think he was going to eat it. He was scheduled to eat two days before the move, I decided to skip that meal and then wait until I had the temps right after moving. So I knew he was hungry, and he was very interested in the mouse. I was making it walk around, but he wouldn't strike. I thought it was getting too cold, so I would dunk in back in warm water. Probably tried that a six times. I thought maybe he didn't like the tongs or me being over there, so I left the mouse in there over night. The next morning it was gone! And there was also a nice complete shed skin! His first for me was really piecey and drawn out, so I'm very pleased this one went well. Maybe being in shed made him more nervous about the f/t also, even though he took live eagerly when in shed. He looks all shiny now.
