I love all kinds of snakes, my favourite would probably be the Burmese Python although I'll never own one of those beautys! Currently negotiating for a boa with my OH, luckily he spotted a BRB yesterday and has decided our life will be incomplete without one! lol |

I fed Romeo for the 1st time on Monday there. 1st time I had ever fed a snake. It was amazing :)
Im pretty much in love with corn snakes and IF my hubby lets me have another I would like a bloodred :) |

My snakes hide for 2-3 days after a feed but will whizz around for a few hours after a feed to find a good spot to bed down and digest.
My ultimate snake is a Green Tree Python. I should have one by the summer. They are not for handling though when they are little, they have a right reputation for been super aggresive too, that just makes them more appealing to me, not that i fancy getting bitten by one any time soon. I have a love for the European Adder too, our only venomous snake, I have been bitten by one of those though as a child, made a right mess of my leg, would love to find a captive bred one though. |

funny thing is im not sure if its 2 do with him just being fed but since i got him he has tended 2 hide away alot, im thinking because of the new surroundings ? but since his feed today he seems 2 be out a bit more climbing a little bit and just not being as hidden away. but im glad hes fed ok and he seems 2 be doing well :) im now looking forward 2 start handeling him, bit nervous though if im completly honest XX :) p.s. just wanna take a chance to thank every1 here so so very much 4 the help and kind words, ive learned more in the last few days from you guys and gals than i have in the past 20 sumthing years of haveing this mad passion for these amazing creatures xx :)
Sorry 2 rabbit on but i woz just wandering if any 1 wud like 2 share there fav species of snake with me ? be it corns or any other species and if they have ever had chance 2 handle or see 1 in real life ?? thank u once again xx :) |

Snakes are opportunist feeders so it's quite normal for them to look for more!
As long as the meal leaves a bump then it's enough until next time he's due.
He will probably hide away now for a couple of days to digest his meal.
I wouldn't offer more food until the next feed. |
