First time of feeding a Fluffy

Same difference hey :)
First time I fed mine a fuzzy he struck, coiled, constricted and scared me half to death! Good luck!
 
they are branded as fluffys at my local 2 or 3 stores... oh well see how ti goes i also gna cut the mouse between head and sholders too attract...
 
Actually, the ones that were fed mice cut with several cuts in the back had the greatest growth rates. The ones punctured in the stomach had better growth than ones fed regular mice with nothing cut or puntured. Don't worry Currin. We feed frozen/thawed mice. We're not cutting live mice up.
 
i'm just the mesenger! lol
I don't do it for the growth rate, i do it to help improvre the digestion prosess, which ca only be a good thing, right?
It doesn't matter to me how long they take to become adult, or breeding size i should say, depending on how yo look at it.
 
my aim beween this method is to help the digesting process... as of yet she has not taken the feed. just gna go hunt down and plastic tub to drill sum 1mm holes and try that....
 
Exactly cornman. It's not about growth rate, although that's just a nice side to it. It makes it easier for them to digest, which cuts down on regurges and other problems. It isn't power feeding as we do not feed any more often. I still feed once a week. They just get more out of their feed.
 
seems to attract

only new to the game but craven seems to be more attracted to the sliced pinkies or sometimes they get to warm when been un-thawed and the skin breaks slightly, more so to the ones that don't be sliced. just as a side thing how often is recommened to feed my snake, currently its once every 5-6 days/
 
I am going to try it tonight with my adult and see if it makes a differance with his digestion. I'll post results in a day or 2 when the lump goes down.
 
cool.. well my snake stilla itn eaten the mouse.. he aint eaten for 8 days now. and that was only 1 pinkie b4 that it was 2 pinkies. every 5 days and sumtyms 3 pinkies every 5 days if it was last 3 left in frezzer.
