Hi everyone,
I have recently created a synthetic "ant hill" located directly in the center of my Brahminy blind snake habitat. The only way for the snakes to enter and exit the chamber is by burrowing below it. It is made from a 1" high bottom of a small pop bottle, with sandy damp soil built up around the sides. In the top, there is a small hole with an attatched drinking straw protruding from the surface, which is normally covered with a very small clay flowerpot. The frozen thawed ant eggs can simply be dropped down the straw into the chamber, which the snakes enter, eat, and then exit. I am writing, because I am very interested in watching the snakes feeding, and perhaps video-recording this behavior. What are some techniques that I could use so that I could actually see this taking place through the glass?
Thanks!
