Good news and bad news. Bad news is all the baby rats are dead. Good news is they were eaten by the snakes. Noose is still trying to buddy up to the food. No interest in eating.

Now I’m not bragging about this part I swear. I have 2 ‘06’s. They took the baby rats like they hadn’t eaten all winter. The change over went fine.

I think I realized why I feed in another container. Two of the four slammed the sucker into the wall. They are housed in glass and I feed in a plastic file cabinet type thing. Here’s a question for the Cinnamon owners. Do they feed aggressively? All of my snakes calmly sit and wait for dinner to stroll by. The “unproven” Cinnamon comes out as soon as the drawer slides open, mouth wide ready to hit anything. And when the second comes in, she is just as eager.
