I got an awesome deal on a 40 gal with sliding locking screen top. To give to Jellybeans my BP. Only $20 ! Excellent condition. Plus they gave me a 20 long that I will use for Cheesecake my corn snake. Sweet deal for sure.
Ok now... I thawed out the rat pup for my ball python last night.
And when I took it out of the plastic bag to make sure it was thawed out I smelled a very strong powder smell but not a nicely scented powder if that makes any sense.
Well as usual he grabbed it and then after short period of time I noticed he didn't have a hold of it anymore. He NEVER lets loose of his meal NEVER. He still had a couple of coils around it but was not holding it with his mouth and was just moving his head around looking at it. Eventually he did grab the head again and he ate it and all is well. I'm most certain that if I smell something different about the rat HE certainly did I wonder what it was? When he let go with his mouth and was looking it over it's like he was expecting it like 'is this what I usually eat' ? Just struck me as odd because he's never done that before and I've never smelled that before... any ideas?
