    Video of Jake Snatching up a mouse

    I hope video falls under the "Pictures" category!

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDl8EiZe_1s

    Leave some comments on youtube so my video goes up in popularity!

    It's his third mouse he has eaten since I've had him!

    Tell me what you think!

    I notice in your video that you said you feed him every 4 days. That is too much. Once a week is more than enough ... just say no to power feeding.

    I had read many places that for jouvies it's recommended to feed 2 times weekly. Jake is only 5 months old. ~ 173 Grams. I don't do exactly 2 every week, it's more like 2 every 8 days.

    Re: Video of Jake Snatching up a mouse

    is there a point to this video?

    you are in a ball python forum... 99.9% of people here own ball pythons and therefore have seen them eat. i really just don't see the point of filming it and putting it on you tube. i think you are in the hobby for the wrong reasons my friend.

    Nice way to put down a noob

    Some people like watching many different snakes eat. Though I've seen too many balls eat, I love watching giant constrictors eat even though I have seen it first hand.

    I'm not in the hobby just to see him eat mice. I have family all over the world, and I told them about how I got the snake. The only thing they were asking me is what they eat, and if its gross, and if it blees, all that stuff. So I made a vide for them to see. I just figured since I already made the vid, I might aswell show the members on the board, including the person that sold it to me. Just to let LORD JACKAL that he is doing good, and he is NOT a picky eater.

    I really don't like the assumption that I got into the hobby for the wrong reason, without even talking to me, or getting to know me, that really pissed me off. I know you have 1000+ posts on here, but that does not give you the right to insult people based on ONE thing they did wrong that YOU didn't like. Next time I wanna show something, I will ask you to approve it.

    Thanks

    This really wasn't necessary. If you aren't interested in someone else's video, you don't have to watch it. You might have said the same thing any time someone posts pictures of their new snake. "Well, we all have one and we know what they look like, so why are you bothering us with pictures???"

    Really...we've seen SO many videos of people blatantly abusing their snakes and/or the prey animals just because they get off on it. THOSE people you can accuse of having the wrong motivations. But to say that about someone just because they share a video.....way too quick to judge.

    And its that .1% on here and the millions at youtube that don't that might find it interesting or educational and there for worth posting.

    Got all that from a video post did ya? I'm curious why you think that? Careful jumping the gun there friend.
