crazy feeding experience

[daniel1983]

well the mighty thor's feeding day was today. I took him out put him in his feeding box, did the mousy dance (showed no interest), so i just set the mouse in his box for a while (still showed no interest), I figured since his skin is starting to dull down so he will probably shed soon that he might not be interested in food. As I was removing him from his box(his head was kinda hanging down off my hand), he nailed the mouse. ha. he picked it up into my hand and was "killing" it. ha. I was kinda shocked at first then i just put him down and everything went down just find. I just thought that was kinda crazy and had to tell someone.

hah! so he was "killing" the thing while he was in your hands??? dude that's friggin awesome!!! he was probably like "aww crap he's taking me out... last chance, GO!"

[daniel1983]

yep it all took place in my hand then i just kinda slowly set him softly into the box hoping he would just continue eating and he did. i am lucky he didnt decide to go for a finger. ha. i was taking it easy getting him out of his box (i did not want to provoke him into biting me if he was in hunting mode). thats probabaly had time to snatch up the mouse.

that IS funny.

wow, nailed the mouse in your hand while in shed.... nice shootin'

i wouldnt count on him being that good twice though
I highly recommend tongs or a hemostat...

[OreoGaborio]

at least you weren't holding the mouse... that coulda been a little more interesting

[daniel1983]

green man, I do use tongs. the mouse was still on the bottom of the box. the snake was in my hand.
