Its been a month of 1st for Vin, with his first strike, first shed (with me) and first constrict last night! It was a proper job to, he struck at the pinkie and wrapped himself round it so completely he rolled across the faun like a little snakey tumbleweed!

So wish I'd had a camera but he's always been a shy feeder and things distract him easily...up till now that is! A couple of weeks ago wiggling a mouse at him would've had him running off to hide, now he'll snatch and eat with me peering in. Success!

Awww thanks, just so pleased because I'm working abroad for a month in May and he's going to a reptile shop to be looked after (my OH is away to and my family is annoyingly anti-snake) & he was such a shy boy I was worried he'd be put off eating. He's going in his own faun to reduce stress and the people seem really nice, but you just can't help but worry can you lol

Yay,go Vin! That sounds brill. Think you'll have to start getting that camera out now he's such a little foodie.
