Hello...

The lone littke survivor from this past litter finally shed out!! I couldn't believe how long it took.. This probably due to them being born premature.. Anyways here are couple pics from the morning after he/she shed. Feeding trials will commence this week!

Rob that is the most beautiful snake ever! I wish they stayed that color oh well. I'll have to make sure my husband doesn't see it or I'll be wiping droll of the computer screen.

He's a beautiful baby Rob and all the more special because he was the only one. Is he eating well for you?

Hey Karen..

The little bugger hasn't fed yet.. I tried last night with a very hot pink mouse and it grabbed and wrapped it but that was it... I will be getting a small hopper and see if that does the trick..

You need to get some food into him Rob. Get a hopper that is big enough to be quite active and one that is smaller. Put the larger one (live) in the cage with him as soon as it gets dark and see if he takes. If not, you really need to consider assist feeding him with the smaller one if you want him to live.
