an a couple of him munching down the rat


one happy rat filled boa

got one more guinea pig left then will get some big rats or small rabbits an space his feedings out to 2 or 3 weeks as have been reading its better to give a bigger meal every couple of weeks rather than feed an adult boa weekly

I would never be able to do that with my boa, I use 1ft tongs, if she strikes
she is so powerful makes me stumble. Although a bit of that stumble is her scarring the crap out of me. Some times I just leave it in and she comes over and eats at her own leisure. she ate last night 470gm rat. How much do guniea pigs weigh, as the largest rat I have weighs 650gms it's gigantic.
