Hopefully with successive captive bred generations the self feeders will cease to be so few and far between. If we can get a few drymarchon guys ( like myself) hooked on them it will really help. I have invited a local dry keeping friend to come see my new easterns, Hes going to love them and in turn hopefully want some 9 and spread the want). I am willn gto bet that captive breds from captive bred parents will have a higher percentage of easy starters.

Im eyeballing a red coachwhip that DTS has on kingsnake right now.. says hes a tame mouse eater.. we shall see.

I offered my easterns pieces of chicken when I was feeding my False water cobras and I swear the male ALMOST took it off the tongs. he wanted too but he is still unsure of me as it has been less than a week since they have been here.. I bet with time he will take alternative food sources other than his 5 pack of mice per week. The female wanted nothing to do with me or my stupid chicken on a stick lol

How are the babys doing Joe?
