scarlet update

54podge Jul 02, 2008 02:59 PM

For those who contributed to me getting on track, I'd like to let you all know that after making the adjustments you recommended, she now eats like a pig. She has even gone from live pinks to F/T pinks. Seems all she needed was some comfort and a taste for mouse flesh.

A total of 6 pinks have disappeared in 2 weeks.

Thanks

Sounds good! Be careful, you can over feed Scarlets pretty easily. Just keep an eye on it's weight. I hope you enjoy it!

I give her two small pinks every weekend, but yeah, I am very careful about overfeeding her because she regurged her first meal she ever took from me. I still keep vigil on her like a newborn for 2-3 days after she eats to make sure temp and humidity are good.

They ain't no Brooks, are they?!?

I bet you pound for pound, they eat as much, if not more, than a Brooksi.
