I made sure i had my camera on me this time when we fed him so managed to catch it all . Ignore me and the OH talking during it.

We left him alone to feed after that.

Nice strike. I may offer you two pieces of advice just get it out the way, I would offer away from the water bowl, a wet mouse gets substrate stuck on it and a strike into the waterbowl is messy and the second bit of advice is get some tongs, when you picked up the bowl too I winced even though I'm sure you'd have said if he bit you also they are designed with great big heat pits in their nose and strike at movement and heat so there is a chance of a fudged strike straight at your hand.

Theres thats all, lol, the viv is brilliant though, very packed out and natural, like the amazon in a box.
