Hey guys,
Now I'm pretty sure the answer is a big yes to this one, but is it quite normal not to see your snakie after he's had a feed?

Fed him at about 7pm Thursday night, and he's been in his fav hide since then. It was a larger size rat than he was used to (he was on pups, guy I got him off of suggested I try the next one up - so I tried a weaner).

I'm thinking it's pretty normal, as I know I don't really feel like moving after a large dinner, and I suppose you do get the uber large snakes in the wild who will eat a gazelle or boar and then not move for ages.

I'm talking myself sensible here, but as I said before - reassurance for a newbie is good .

Oh, absolutely - it's content royal behaviour. Full belly = snoozing invisible royal. You'll probably see his highness prowling the day before the next feed ... 'Where's me rat!!'

Definately normal, keeping nice warm and cosy digesting that meal.

yup, perfectly normal
