    I know! Yesterday was feeding day and I give two days for digestion.

    Luckily, everyone ate! Never an issue with Behira (the BCI) or Figment (the adult male corn), but Shayna can be picky (the BP), and Solana ((baby Scaleless Sunglow (Red Factor) Motley Corn)) just arrived last Thursday, so thrilled she ate. However, can't play with any snakes today! Or yesterday for that matter (no handling feeding day).

    Luckily, I still have Frank (BTS) and the Gecko's, who like to play too!

    It can lonely Sunday and Monday though without my slithering friends!

    I actually split feeding days up throughout the week, just so I have flexibility with handling. Typically I feed two at a time, then a few days later the other two. Sometimes sheds and refusals will change things, but I try to follow that routine.

    When I first got into snakes, I think that was one thing that spurred me into getting more: it was awful when they were in shed & "unavailable".

    So for many years, I had WAAAAY more, but now I'm down to 16, and wouldn't mind just 10 or less... (it only took 3+ decades to feel this way, hahaha!)

    Having too many to interact with is no fun, & you feel like all you do is clean & feed...I love to spend time with my pets, so "less is more" for me, now.
