GOOD JOB!Originally Posted by newbpowner4
It was a success! I fed Platano the 17g rat and he struck and coiled instantly. He's swallowing it as I write this. Thank you so much to both Bogertophis and Dakski for your help! From now on, I will be feeding him, as well as my other BPs, smaller meals. I rather have them eat a rat that's 10% of their body weight every week, consistently, then try for a 15% one that might cause them to refuse the following week.
This was a (stressful) learning experience and I really appreciate that you guys took the time to help me solve the issue as well as made me feel better about his current weight so I wasn't constantly worrying these past 9 days.
So thanks again!And you're welcome, that's why we're here- to help you figure out your snakes.
And maybe have a little fun sharing our experiences too...
