well it has been a good couple of weeks so far. Both Dahomey and Gaia have taken there first meal after fasting for over 6months. Kanu my pastel had his first ever abolutely perfect shed. Ashanti my new little spider who is brill( despite having tagged me a couple of days ago) seems to have quite happily takening to frozen thawed prey. Andromeda hasn't struck at me for some time although you can tell she wants to. the only mishap was that Niobe one of my corns tried to eat my son. LOL he was helping me to clean out vivs and i gave him niobe to hold ( now niobe is an august 09 corn so still pretty small.) but while empty out viv i heard this "daddy whats she doing?" and when i look at her she was locked on to his wrist bone. then off cours my son who is only 6 realised what she was doing. my that time i had her off and sent him to go and wash his wrist. he came back with too tiny pin *****s on his wrist. he said it stung a bit but wasn't phazed at all and was waiting to hold the next snake. when we where finished with vivs he ran out to call for the 15year old who lives next to us( and who owns a royal) to show him his battle scares. Bless.
so good week all in all.

funny my 2 even though they had not be eating just went in to shed. both had great sheds. refused the first week after shed. the second week i just warmed large mouse a bit with the dyer and left out side hides. one took it with in 5 mins the other sniffed around for a good bit. i took it out after 2hrs gave it another blast with the dyer and strike. awh it was great to see. as that was dahomey my wee reacue from august last year. whio had not really established him self as a striker before his fast.

Cheers BE. he turned out a nice sucess story and great experience. not that i would wish it on any one but taking a frail poorly close to death snake into your care is a great learning experience you really learn how to work with your snakes, rather than just have them. if you know what i mean.
