Feeding responce is an understatement. Mine as well many others Ive heard of and have fed or watched eat all feed aggressively. They seem as if they are always hungry, and are hard to fill up. I was given a few bags full of rat pups by a friend who sold a few snakes that ate them. I defrost 23-25 of them for the flaviargus at a time, he flies after them and eats like he is starving until number 18 or 21. Most times he eats chicken peeps and sometimes medium guinea pigs.
At one time when my huge female albig was a bit younger I showed a few people how aggressive of a feeding responce she had (one was a member here, not sure why he doesnt post here anymore), I held up a single adult mouse from a shoulder height, she leaped from a plastic container she was in to take it from my fingers (5ft in the air, please dont try this unless you know your monitor very very well).
My ackies have been known to leap their body length into the air to grab rat pups.
The flavi is by far the most exciting to feed.
