Diego has been eating GREAT for the past 4 feeds, striking like lightening every time.

2 feeds ago I moved him onto rat fuzzies and the first one he seemed to manage fine.

The second one I gave him last night and he decided to swallow it starting in the middle, so it folded in half.

I was sooo panicked that he was going to do himself some serious harm, it took him an hour to get it down and at one stage I was convinced the rat was going to pop out of his neck.

But, he got it down- and heres the bump to prove it!
