Nice snakes, I am not having a go, but what was it 10 Celsius yesterday 20 lower than what they should have, the grass would probably be colder.

Hi lynne.
The hot end is around 85f and cold end around 75f.
They seem to use both ends so the temps are pretty good. Theya re feeding on medium mice. Very Happy Very Happy
The male strikes at you in the cage. But he isnt as aggressive out of the cage as he used to be. I used to get bitten everytime about 3 - 4 times. Shocked
But they have calmed down. Although i do get bitten every now and then Razz Laughing
They are great animals! Very Happy Mine are 100% het for albino too. I believe. Smile

they look gorgeous. last night i noticed my tai going nuts in his viv, and normally he is very secretive. never see him. although all my mats are on stats including his, i was wondering if, with the days getting warmer, this was affecting him! do you find this? and do you find heat makes them a bit more nippy? im going to have to drag all the vivs out and check the stat settings on them. Shocked
what age are your lucies, and what size will they grow too? sorry i'm asking all these questions, but i really love the rat snakes. and yours are beautiful. i love her eyes.
