Small victories
Hello. Our (my wife and I) 900 gram male normal went on hunger strike the end of last October. Just wanted to share my joy in watching him eating a rat. I know it doesn't seen like much but for some reason I feel like I won a prize. Anyway just thought I'd share.

Re: Small victories
Congrats. Nothing worse than a snake that won't eat.

Congrads!
Heard of them going 9 months and still being ok, so that's great news.

Re: Small victories
Congrats on your victory! I completely understand the feeling. I have a male that's a constant bad eater but also has the spider gene so he has neuro issues. Every meal he takes is a small victory in my book. He's a frustrating little guy but so sweet and silly that I can't help but love him to death. He's taught me a lot of patience and made me a better keeper.
