Feeding my boa a rat

Here is my 6-7 months old female boa with a semi-adult rat














































Also here is a small movie of it, I moved the camera when she hit the rat as usual, sorry for that

great pics and beautiful boa. Now, when a rat that size starts leaving less and less of a lump, move it up to a bigger size. Assuming that rat left a good size lump on her. If not, you need to try bigger next time. She's lovely!

Thanks
I think i'll feed her two of these sized rats next week since now that I compare the rat to her it's not even that large for her, it's defeniatly not too small, but not too large either.

As for the photograpic-skills, thanks to my father for dad, he made those with his cam, he's a pro he does it all day

As you can see the difference between the quality of the pictures, the high-quality pictures are pictures my dad made with his cam, the others are pics I made with my canon ixus v3
