Hi,

Thanks for your response, and thanks to the people who emailed me. I have not yet started lizard scenting yet. Now my one 9/03 male albino nelsons is the only problem feeder. My 7/03 female het and other two milks eat like pigs, every other day, although I generally don't feed them that often as they get overly fat.

About the rats, I am picking out the tiniest pinks for the little male, so I assumed that rat pinks are way too big. I would agree that say, giving a larger snake rat fuzzies instead of adult mice would be easier on them, but do you think a little rat pink would have less hair and bone than a mouse pinky? I'll be posting in the feeder food discussion forum, as I'm pretty interested in this.

My other milksnakes were a bit difficult to get feeding. I'm planning on just getting this guy feeding reliably once a week, and slowly cut it down to every 3-4 days, age might also help, as my older ones (just a few months older) grab and slam around any food I give them.



Thanks,

Taylor
