Well, my one baby who loved to skip meals on me was finally able to graduate up to fuzzies and has eaten every meal in a row for the last three weeks!! :cheers: :crazy02:
Shew! He made me quite nervous for a while.
I knew he'd get to eating as he's terribly healthy, just a little picky. I would have to feed him in a deli cup inside his drawer. The cramped quarters seemed to be highly effective at coercing him to eat.
Initially, I would brain a pinkie. Then I got to where I wouldn't have to do that. And now finally he's on fuzzies and eating me out of house and home.
Thank god I didn't sell alll my snakes. I really do love them!
I've also recently acquired a very large male snow who has nice orangish color saddles. He was a pet store rescue. Couldn't help myself. :rolleyes:
Now all I have to do is find my escaped Shelby! He's a Shelbyville Retile Expo purchase (hence the name). A male anery and GOD was he getting to be a big beautiful boy!!!
My son left his drawer cracked ever so slightly and viola! snake out the door.
With all luck, he'll turn back up, but it's been a month and I'm convinced I may never see him again.
I'm putting out some fuzzies tonight in an attempt to lure him out of hiding.....we'll see how well that works!!
See what fun I've been having since I haven't been on here posting?!! LOL!
I missed you guys terribly!!!
