Posted - 29/09/2010 : 18:15:34 hey titch, yeah aura - the butter stripe above didnt want to eat pretty much for a year - we got her in september last year and it was just about a week ago that she ate unassisted for the first time..shes an extreme example and everything was tried - heating the pinkie in water/with a hairdryer, dipping in tuna brine/chicken soup, braining, splitting it open, leaving her with no handling at all, leaving her in a small tub with pinkie for an hour,covering the faun up.. everything.. i was assist/force feeding her from january right up until last week - although as she got bigger she did make more of an effort swallowing the pinkie - just didnt want to open her mouth up! i was heating the pinkie up with the hairdryer while she was on my lap and it must have triggered something as she slithered up, opened her mouth and ate it!!!
usually it doesnt take much to get them feeding - braining and heating usually work first though |

Posted - 27/09/2010 : 21:58:53 Thank you Hannah. They are both Gorgeous snakes.
I'm glad Aura is getting there, I'm sure She will triple in size in no time now she is feeding on her own.
Thanks again,

Aura - just over a year old and just started feeding on her own - shes weighing in at just under 25gs which is slowly going up as shes becoming a right piggie!!
and Edison - just about 16months old, on small/medium mice and not sure about weight..
will get some more recent ones of edison onces hes finished digesting
hope these help! |
