    Hard strike on rat.

    Rex is a highly supervised live feeder (please save the f/t lectures for a different thread).

    He has recently switched over from mice to rats and when he hits a rat, he's like a different snake. It's almost scary he hits it so hard.

    Has anyone else seen a dramatic increase in feeding response and strike when moving fro mice to rats?

    Thanks,

    ken

    Re: Hard strike on rat.

    I'm not sure if it was an increase in feeding response, or just the spring hitting. Issa has been a great feeder since spring happened. I usually feed him f/t but a couple of times he's gotten p/k.
