I really enjoyed feeding my snakes on Saturday. I usually just feed them and dash but I was introducing some new prey items to a few critters and wanted to see how they would react. I watched them all finish their meals which I haven’t done in a long time. They definitely didn’t disappoint. I gave my scrub python his first small rabbit which he quickly snatched off the tongs. It took him a little while to figure it out but he got it down easily. He’s been lying still under his heat panel ever since. Two of my carpets eagerly took large hamsters for the first time and even my undersized “mouser” Bredli ate a large hamster which was very exciting. I hope I can finally get him eating something larger than a jumbo mouse. I love feeding the snakes a diverse diet and it was awesome to see them experiencing, and hopefully enjoying, something new. The Argentine Boa will get the next rabbit in a few weeks.
