Females Feeding.....

Jlassiter Feb 21, 2010 07:38 PM

Since the warm up on the 15th of this month these females have been pounding mice.....This is their second round of feeding and no one is refusing.....Seems like they know they need the calories to produce egg follicles......I wish them all good luck....

LOL, I'm cracking up. LOL

It's a day-old chicken. They have the weirdest build!! It's a head about the size of a big fuzzy then about 4" of skinny floppy neck, then the body is the size of a large adult mouse, then those long legs. Something like this.

Head> O----((()))=====E

I like Rose. Cool that you seem to keep a number of snakes, but still name them. Only 3 of the herps that I keep don'thave names; a pair of Yucca Night Lizards and a Banded Gecko...only because i couldn't think up anything that'd stick.

LOL....I have about 60 snakes and only 6 of them have names......
But the ones that have names have them for a reason......I don't think I could remember all of their names if I tried.....

Sorry, I hope you don't think less of me now.....J/K....

Hey John!!!!

Yup, still lurking . It's now part of Therapy. Had a little Short Circuit they are calling a nervous breakdown. Probably would have had one long ago (they are common among Clergy, especially when a Kid w/Special needs is added to the mix!!!!), if not for the snakes!!!! I am under orders to relax (what's that!!) and not do anything for a while. I'm not to even think about the Church (someone said the Church would be a great place to work if not for the people!!!!) So it's just me, Evelyn, Bryan, and, after this week, 8 snakes. I can't even drive for a while. So I'll just enjoy what Y'all post!!!! Keep the Pics coming!!!!
