What can I say, I love my little old ladies! I just know she can't handle the setups and everything herself, not to mention having to handle the feeder mice...she's 75 years old, I'm 19 and it's a pain for me sometimes. I much prefer it this way, at least doing this they get their "critter time" in and I don't have to worry about the snakes being nippy or coiling too tight around an arm or something.
