Posted - 08/07/2009 : 23:28:51 I don't if montiiee's been blue for more than a couple of days, but did this feed as montiiee only went blue the day he was due. But i won't be offering food again until after the shedding process is complete. As i don't want him laying around in moss hide after eating. |

Posted - 08/07/2009 : 22:29:10 That's why you need more snakes, then if one doesn't eat, chances are, another will |

Posted - 08/07/2009 : 22:22:41 I voted never. I dont want to waste a rat if they dont eat. It makes no differance if they miss a week. |

Posted - 08/07/2009 : 18:04:21 I`ve only had my Royals a couple of months and at first didn`t realise when my female was going in to shed, fed her reguardless and she always ate. Learning quickly though and last time i left her untill she had shed properly. |

Posted - 08/07/2009 : 15:47:17 I would always feed my russian ratsnake regardless but he was a dustbin and would eat every day if i had let him (this is going back some years, lol)
I wouldnt offer either of my royals food whilst in shed. The reason for Obran, although a good eater, i dont have anything similar size to offer the refused food item to so its a waste and for Scamps i dont really have a reason but a bit of variety in your feeding times cant do any harm |
