Lynne what a truly beautiful snake, delighted that she seems to have decided to behave herself at last. Very Happy

aw i was tearing my hair out with this one quasi!! then all of a sudden away she went. now she thinks everytime the tub opens she should get fed. you have to drag the food item around though, she likes to chase it!!!! (it is dead though).

I've got a little boy snake that would like to meet her, and make some nice Lucies Very Happy

She really is beautiful Lynne, well done again. Well she obviously prefers her dinner on the move, our little Mojo finally struck fed on Friday, and they are all getting fed again tonight, they are prowling about like mad things so I'm having to increase to every 5 days, the het poed female had to have second helpings last feeding Laughing

I wouldn't eat McDonalds either! YUK Laughing

I think I might have tried that in the past, though had nothing to do with feeding snakes Laughing

Yes, definately a relief, I'll be really happy when he starts asking for double portions as well, he's the smallest of the 11 now, as he refused his first 2 weeks worth of dinner Rolling Eyes

I daresay now he's got the hang of it again, he'll soon catch up, mind you maybe not with Isis, she's just a gannet!! Laughing
