well low andbehold after four attempts last night I opened his glass slider to feed him, I had a rat defrosted and a mouse defrosted and he could obviously smell the mouse cos he struck at m a few times through the open glass!! don;t they look viscious when they do that!!! any I put the rat weaner next to the grumpy old sod!! he struck it and squoze the life out the dead rat lol
looked in his little house in the morning and no sign!!! so success I just hope that e texts one next week, I have a mouse there shall i bin this now and keep on rats or perhaps throw that in as a treat in mid week?

Well done on the feeding, hopefully there will be no stopping him now!

You won't be disappointed with a boa, ours is a little star.

That's gonna be a bad blockage one day. I take them out with me when I walk the dog, the seagulls like the odd rat or mouse.
