Hi folks,
I just wanted to tell you that Scooby and Socrates fed with gusto - their first meal with me. I was truly worried as I've never fed snakes before. I thawed the pinks and ran them under a boiling hot tap for a couple of minutes. Scooby ate one pink and Soc downed two. I fed them in seperate tubs (not in their vivs) and then after a few minutes transferred them back to their respective vivs. I'm leaving them well alone now and they've both hidden themselves. I hope I did all this right. It was amazing to watch them strike (although they did eat the pinks tail first but I don't suppose that matters does it?).
I'm so glad this feed went ok but now I'm worrying about regurge. Hope that if I leave them well alone for a few days all will be ok.
