Eating again.

arik May 07, 2004 02:39 PM

Remember I said my snake wouldn't take rabbits any more? Well today I went to go get 2 guinea pigs and found out they only had $26.99 pigs left. So I asked about jumbo rats and they gave me 2 med. rats. I got home and put a rat in the opposite side of the cage as her. Before I could get the door shut I heard the rats demise. I then put the other rat in with the rabbit in a ten gallon.(to scent it somewhat). I took the rabbit out, after the snake was about done with the first rat, and creamed it with a stick.I threw the rat scented rabbit in on the floor of the cage so when the snake gets done she might just go to the rabbit.

To top it all off I'm out of batteries so I can't show you all.

To conclude: The snake still didn't eat the rabbit but at least it ate. Two med. rats are better than nothing. I think I'll be taking kelly's advice and holding off on rabbits for a couple months. I'll feed her pigs and jumbo rats for awhile.
At least that noisy rabbit is dead.lol

Arik,
Just remember that when you try a rabbit again in a couple of months, start small (large rat size).

Rechargables for lithium batteries? I (believe it or not), am not a camera buff. I don't know if there is something like that. I doubt it. Anyone have any input?
How's the baby? When are you going to try to feed him? WE WANT PICS!!! lol
