and frank took another feed so think thats his fast over

Oh that's good - glad to hear. My Cy is eating again too - even gone up a mouse size and growing at last (she's 2 this year and barely bigger than Shiloh, who's half her age.)

Now for the big corns to start their antics ...colubrids are supposed to be more straightforward than royals, but they've all got their peculiarities lol.

Now you'll have to find a mate for Jeff.

Hope you find her. Doesn't Jeff musk? I've always been a bit put off rat snakes and king snakes because of that (although why after corn snakes I don't know lol!)

Oh right, he's a good lad then, oh boy, tempted now as a shop in the next town has some Everglades rats and I was meant to be picking up another royal this week but the vendor found she couldn't part with him. (Which is nice.) That shop has hoggies too ...But really ought to be saving money lol!

I once met a grey rat snake who nipped me (which was nothing) and then stuck his tail up my sleeve to musk me ...I stuck him back in his viv just in time, he only left a drop on me but ewwww!

Yup, sure are nice ...

They're pretty similar to corns but feistier, and they don't grow that much bigger - 6-7'.

Pretty ...I like their huge eyes - a couple of my corn morphs are the same, the caramel motley and the snow stripe, obviously bred with a little help from ratty genes - and they can tail rattle with the best lol!
