So I've been giving Star double fluffs for quite a while now as i was nervous about moving her up but she really didn't have much of a bump after so i decided today was the day...cue a very nervous mummy!

Anyway so here are the pictures...

Star's first coil!!!!!!


What you looking at..course i knew how to coil!!!


Tongue!!!

Getting a little distracted...


Ahh yes this is what i was doing...


Im doing it mum!!!


Open wide!!


It's going down!


Now that is what you call a bump



Thank you mummy!!


Well if your still looking at me, ill look at you!


There were certainly some very nervous moments when i thought oooh nooo maybe she wasn't ready but it went down and i know have a very content snakey sleepily digesting in her warm hide

Thanks for looking guys, gutted about the quality of some of the pictures so i do apologize i wanted to use my bf's Ipad but he took it too work so my phone cam had to do!

Thanks Sue, she was 100g and 83cm when i put her i tend to follow this..

Snake Weight | Type Of Mouse | Weight Of Mouse
4-15g | 1 x Pinkie Mouse | 1-3g
16-23g | 2 x Pinkie Mice | 2 x 1-3g
24-40g | 1 x Fuzzie Mouse | 4-6g
41-70g | 1 x Large Fuzzie Mouse/2 x Fuzzie Mice | 10-12g/2 x 4-6g
71-130g | 1 x Small Adult Mouse | 12-14g
131-200g | 1 x Medium Adult Mouse | 15-20g
201-300g | 1 x Large Adult Mouse | 20-25g
301-500g | 1 x X-Large Adult Mouse | 25-30g
501-700g | 1 x Jumbo (Ex-Breeder) Adult Mouse/1 x Small Adult Rat | 30-35g

but every snake is different and you always have to wait till there is next to no bump and left after a meal and that the prey is no bigger than one and a half times the thickest part of the snake, as im sure you know

Well done, Star! She made it look easy. On the last picture, she looks like she's saying " but Mum, are you sure there really isn't a second one? "

herriotfan Posted - 30/09/2012 : 18:23:18
Well done Star. I love the way she kept her tail end in a coil all the time!! It's always a relief when they move up a size mouse without any problems.
Okeetee Mick Posted - 30/09/2012 : 18:05:10
Glad it went well
Donnie Posted - 30/09/2012 : 17:31:53
Well done, its always more of a worry for the owner than the snake
Figs Posted - 30/09/2012 : 16:37:50
