    Ever get the feeling, "this might be the day"?

    So it's feeding day for all my little guys. About to go pick up their food now. But do you ever get worried before feeding that they're all just gonna NOT eat that day? Lol. This will be my first feeding for the new additions so I guess that's why I'm freakin out.

    I've never had anything under 700 grams refuse a meal, but I have been on the other side of the fence. One of my pied girls went off feed for about 4 months and every time I went to feed I was excited and hoping that it was the day she would start feeding again.

    UPDATE!!:::

    Don't know why I was worried. I attempted to feed 5 of the 6 snakes that I have. My Florida kindsnake is DEEP in shed and he doesn't wanna eat. So here are the results.

    The butter male had no problem.

    the Mojave female who is VERY deep in shed had no problem. No surprise, she's a pig.

    the Kenyan sand Boa ate two large pinkies. He's also a pig lol

    and the first of the new additions ate two f/t hoppers. First time I've fed her, she's a beast. Love her so much. Btw, I named her "Elektra"

    and finally, my little 56 g Pastel Enchi TORE his F/T hopper up.

    So considering all of my snakes except for the king in shed ate today, I'd say my husbandry is doing well. Even though they're in the "dreaded TUBS." Lol... or maybe that's EXACTLY why they eat so well! Lol

    Have a good day everyone!
