Hi all just thought i'd stick this up to let you know.
Thought I would try Gaia with a feed to night. %nights from her last feed and 3 and 1/2 days after move. She seemed pretty settled and with the feeding rep she had I thought would be better to keep her on routine.

Any way skip to offering food part. she came over tongue going good signs had a look around it and then...... she just sat there. after about 10mins of wiggling she kinda looked sides ways at me and then slugged of into her i. I decided to leave the mouse sitting on top of another hide in the viv and went to make a cup of coffee. when I cam back in the mouse was gone.

Gaia had crossed the viv and pulled it back to the hide she was in and had it constricted. eating soon followed.

So, so far so good. My 2girls have both eaten in less than a week from move. might be moving them up to rats sooner than I thought.

Also had freyja out for a bit tonight.i post up a couple of pics tomorrow night.

Well just a quick update. Both doing great Gaia had a great all in one shed and filled her belly that night. so both have taken both feeds from they came home and both on a strike and constrict.( no you know whats now from those 2feeds yet) as for moving to rats what size should i be going for. bought a weaner the other day but it looks huge compare to the mouse?


on a non royal note.
extended the reptile side of the family this week end and bought my son a carolina corn for his birthday. ( of course i had to get one for my self as well LOL)
