7 out of 12 imports love African Rats!

garycrain Mar 12, 2006 07:01 AM

I have had these snakes since August and Septemeber. None have eaten for me since I got them in. They were all adult females.

maybe they are just eating again since MY winter is over.

Its been about 2 weeks since I tried any mice rats or gerbils.

All I know is some have eaten 2x now and still wont even look at a normal rat.

Just having 7 adult females eat for the first time in one night is enough for me. Granted at $2.50 per rat I cant keep that up so I will have to switch them over, but they have to be eating first so the hard part is over!

LIFE IS GOOD TODAY!
