    Sunglows circus tricks

    Tonight when I fed my sunglow she decided to squeeze a little harder and pop her rat

    And when I went back to check what entrails where all over the viv she decided Tah DAh and for my next trick

    It really made me laugh to see her balance 3 pieces of orchid bark on her head

    I've only had this happen when the feeder was slightly overheated.

    Re: Sunglows circus tricks

    I left it to thaw at room temp in a bag in the shed where my frozen reptile food is kept which is in the shade all day this morning, the other six snakes I fed hadn’t done it ,
    I never heat the food up to feed ,all ways room temp,the smell alone is enough for them to strike
    I’ve never had it happen before this

    Re: Sunglows circus tricks

    When I just had boas, I had that a happen a couple of times myself. When I thaw I usually let them sit out at room temp for a while too, with the balls I do use a hairdryer boost. And yes it’s impressive when they get it all down, and gross as hell lmao.

    Re: Sunglows circus tricks

    I guess thawing at room temp would take a long time? Do you worry about bacteria building up on the food item?

    Sunglows circus tricks

    I’ve never had problems yet, had snakes over 20 years, they also in a sealed box do no fly’s lay eggs.sometimes I will defrost in a bag with water if I haven’t got them out the freezer in time ,I do smell them first just in case tho
