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!!' |

as I've only had Palin for just over a week ,I can't tell you what's normal, but Palin's feed twice in that time. and just like my almost teenage son, eats and then disappears to their room, for a couple of days. |
