 He ate!!!

My baby ball ate for the first time since i got him (7 days ago). He was really good about it. I dropped the mouse into the tank and he didn’t give it time to freak out. He just lashed out and went to town. I will take pictures next time i feed him.

cool cant wait to see them, just wondering what your views are on feeding live...i have been criticised for doing so and am now wondering whether they are right or wrong.

I feel stunned is good. I wouldn’t want to put a live and mean moue in with my baby. i’d rather stun it a bit and let the snake do his buissness. I will switch to F/T eventually but right now i have to go with the proven thing but over time he’ll switch. I wish the mice and rats were defenseless that would be a go thing to watch. But my nerves were bad even with a stunned mouse.

If you want to be sure of a dead (or KO’ed and dieing) mouse get some mouse fuzzies and give them 5 very hard flicks on their head.

Really one good flick to the nose will kill a mouse. Or you can simply grab em by the tail and swing them into a corner or a ledge and its instant death.
