Posted - 07/09/2011 : 00:05:16 Hi guys, just thought I say my hatchling had her 1st feed tonight!! After a little tail rattling while trying to get her out,put her in the rub with pinkie and within 2 mins she was on it and gobbling it down!!!! Very chuffed indeed! She's back in the warm hide now, cosy I hope. But back to the rattling business, is this a normal thing for hatchlings to do? |

As for the tail rattling, just remember to let her/him get used to its surroundings, as well as you. Also, @shaunb: Hey, my snake used to have the name "Apophis" as well. I renamed her though. Funny thing is, they are both the same color. |
