    It means try the method 6 or 7 times in as many minutes .

    So if the snake doesn’t strike the first time you have to reheat the mouse/rat with the hairdryer and offer the food instantly again ... then repeat as many times as you can be bothered . Too many offer a cool mouse ONCE then just give it up as a bad job . That’s why I always emphasise the method so carefully.

    We did this dance for almost 2 months straight, 5 or 6 times per night, with the hair dryer and/or heat tape for re-heats. Never took F/T for me. Shortly there after she took a live rat crawler for me. Haven't gone back to F/T or PK yet as she won't eat live consistently. You can stop beating this horse, I've tried.

    Aye,

    That is the same snake. She's a little bigger. If she had any physically apparent defects I 1) wouldn't have bought her or 2) wouldn't have spent what I spent on her.

    She was fresh from shipping bag in that picture and slightly curled. She's not got a kink or anything of the like. No abnormalities that I can find physically.

    But yes, same snake.
