ur so rite lynne, i didn't even think about the fact that this is a really little royal, so een chick would indeed be to big 4 it, but as u said a leg might work, or maybe the middle part of the chick? _________________ 1.1 Hypo Salmon Boa (Gee Line)

actually i tried a chick once with one of my bigger ones, and didnt realise till then just how big they are!!! but aye the middle may be better than a leg even. _________________

One of my 07 Royals has decided not to eat Been off her food for several weeks. Hey, Grandma is not having that.... So I put a crawler multi mammate in with the snake - HATED doing that as I love the multis - the snake struck and started eating. As the last bit was disappearing I put the head of a F/T mouse in her mouth and that went down as well. Looks as though I will have to do the same again this week
I am not bothered if the larger snakes do not eat over the winter, but with a baby it is important to me that they eat. Any way that you can get a young multi Paul ? They are very good for getting a snake to strike and start to feed. |

aye the larger ones can go months without eating, but i hate it when its a youngster. its more important to get them eating. _________________

Paul if I lived closer to you I could give you a pair to start breeding your own, but am not OF COURSE going to post them
Does anyone in the North have one that Paul could try on his Royal ? Come on every-one, who can help ? |

Paul , just read thru this thread . Well done that man Well proud that you have stuck in and went the distance with your royal . She is one lucky snake to have a caring owner .
I take my hat off to you Sir.
As for the feeding , hang in there , she will strike when you least expect it .
She looks fantastic , I really like the black on her as well . _________________ 3.7.0 Royals
