Reptile & Amphibian Forums

Started my usual Monday ritual of starting to feed everyone for the week. As I was going ever one of the subadults I offerred food to ate. Didn't matter, fully opaque, just shed even one in middle of shed. Took a few pics....

This is Dot, one of my Will Bird 2007 babies, They are simply stunning, so glad I bought a whole group of them.

Also one of the 2007 Will Bird girls this is Henrietta, also just shed today.

Not to be left out this is Lon, one of my blush phase holdbacks. Not a real bright BRB but I like the side medalions!

And last up in this group is Tawney, my Anery female. She was mid shed so I took her out for a mid shed pic.

Then I offerred her a rat - slam, IMO this is a really cool shot.

Thanks for looking!

I only drink them after they have been in the freezer for like 30 minutes at home cuz the ice ruins it. Rally's has very good fountain cokes around here and I don't drink 2 liters and the 20 ounces have to much carbonation in them so I much prefer the can or a fountain drink but I only get the fountain drinks from Rally's. One of these days I won't be so anal specific in my ways but unfortunately it won't be no time soon and thanks for the opinion too-much appreciated
Bob

only time i drink coke is ICE cold cans

aww hes hugging the rat lol. yeah i didn something i normaly dont do i fed the dumerils even tho i just got them early this mourn but i figured since he only fed them once a month and i was cleaning my mice cage (the lucky once who didnt get eatin yet) and i said what the hey there smaller than what they should be eating im sure they are hungry and man did they hit them with force holy crap lol i dont think ill have much of a problem switching them over to F/T

You should try switching over with the next feeding. Best time to switch is when they're really hungry and will eat just about anything!

i was gonna do it the first feeding but i had to get rid of these mice i got them for my trouble some carpet babies and did not want to feed them to my normal F/T eaters so i had been housing the rats for about a week now i origanly had 7 mice then 2 of the carpets took the live like champs but that still left me with 5 mice well i have 2 left still for the coming up feeding plus one extra to go to the dums if they dont take the F/T i just couldnt stand havin that many lives around

Last night I fed mine, and Mickey (the male I got from Jeff Clark) was about 1/2 shed when I went to put him back into his cage and he took his rat without hesitation. Minnie shed a couple of hours after eating. Now I still have the one baby that will only eat live, but I am working on getting her switched over to f/t.

My spotted pythons will not eat when in shed - unless it is a tiny meal.
