my bp had his first baby rat!!!i just posted a thread very recently about my little guy striking at me and being agressive... well hopefully he wont be anymore!... i bought a live baby rat from my local pet store... i left the rat inside the tub with the snake... 45 mins passed and nothing happened except for my snake striking twice and missing.... i was aabout to give up so i grabbed the tongs and grabbed the mouse but then i noticed that my bp's tongue was flickering like crazy so i thought "ok just once more" as soon as i lifted up the tongs ... BAM.... coiled around him so fast... he didnt have him in his mouth, just had him coiled tightly... so i left him in there in the dark.... went to the gym, came back and the mouse was gone!!
............................ i just have a few questions, i had to take out the hide in the tub because there wasnt enough room so now in the rubbermaid; theres my snake, water dish and a bunch of wet paper towel substrate (wet because of the humidity from the heating pad underneath the water dish).... i just want to know, WHEN AND HOW i should switch the substrate because the entire enclosure is SOAKED and he has NO hide in there??? and when can i place him inside his new tank (its all ready to go) ???
