aww i can't wait to get one don't think my mum will let me get another but i bet i will want more addictive then Very Happy
wow ill keep that in mind when i handle them wouldn't want to let it escape Shocked how long do u keep them in a small container for? witch do you prefer Royal or corn
Shocked wow a mouth print that would shake me up especially first bite. my brother got bitten on the ear once and it wouldn't let go for ages (california king snake)
oh another question when the corns gets big do you have to feed them rat fussies or can you feed them medium mice thanks Smile

I have been bitten by my corn twice, both times it was my fault, I startled her when she was in blue. Embarassed
It felt, like others have said, like being brushed with velcro. No mark or anything.

my larger ones are on rat fluffs now. but they still have a bit of growing to do. if i cant get rat fluffs they take small/nedium mice.

they go into blue just before they shed. the eyes go pale blue. rats are more nutritious than mice. so i have as many of mine as i can on rats, but it doesnt matter which.

thanks for all your help Smile i have had loads of pet rats in the past and i know there basically the same as mice Embarassed i just didn't fancy feeding the baby rats, but i should do whats best for the snake if its better i will feed them fluff rats when they get big but if mice are fine i will do that Smile (my friend doesn't understand how i can get a snake and feed it mice) when i have had rats as pets Sad i understand were she is coming from
but i love snakes and its just nature, i see it as im not feeding live, there not my pets and i would never kill and eat a pet chicken, but i eat the ones in shops any way im rambling now so im of to bed thanks again Smile
