He's doing well too, but he's a little more picky about feeding than the female. I'm sure he'll be a voracious eater like his sibling in just a short time.

Glad you noticed that she's filled out some,...she's a real
"garbage disposal" when it comes to eating!

Have you tried 6 day old pinks or even fuzzys? I feed some of mine 5 pinks at a time. They look like sausages after they eat. Some will do this for me and some won't. They litterally grow in front of my eyes. Some Florida king have the stomachs of pythons as they can stuff themselves until they s t r e t c h. Pythons commonly take lots of food like this and not regurge. I have heard even the smaller pythons like spotteds, anthills ect will do this as well.

they would be a bit bigger than they are now, but after running low, my current rodent supply consisted of REAL small, and several hundred that are WAY too big, that I have for all my other animals. I have to order some several day old pinks soon for optimum meal size.

take care, ~Doug
